Intermediate Marbles with Borosilicate Glass
Christopher Rice Flameworking
Working with borosilicate glass, students will learn advanced marble-making techniques and how to create basic floral implosions, vortexes, butterflies, and surface designs. The class will explore the range of available borosilicate colors, determining which ones work well together in different applications. Crayon colors will be used for flowers and surface decorations. Students will be shown how to make implosion marbles with solid rods and tubing, and how to approach larger sized spheres. One year of flameworking experience is required.
Christopher Rice has been flameworking since 1999. Since then, Mr. Rice has studied with Robert Mickelsen, Milon Townsend, and Eric Goldschmidt. He currently operates C.N.Y. Glass Studio in Boonville, NY, with his wife, Jacquelyn.
