Glass Bead Workshop [精裝] (玻璃珠工坊: 製作技能,探索技術,尋找靈感)

內容簡介

Glass beadmaking has exploded in popularity - and those artists who have successfully mastered the basics want more techniques to enhance their repertoire. Jeri Warhaftig, a respected and experienced teacher, offers intermediates her time-tested, workshop-based approach to expanding their beadmaking skills. In each superbly illustrated and illuminating chapter, she focuses on using current tools, new materials, and innovative methodology to produce a singular bead - with several variations for every one. The possibilities, from sandblasting to metal inclusions, are stupendous: craft sculptural flower beads; create a lightweight, hollow seashell-shaped bead; and go for the 'wow' factor with geode beads that enclose decorative elements within a layer of glass. Helpful tips are sprinkled throughout and a gallery of additional work will inspire.
