About

Make a glass valentine in this special, one-day class for Valentine's Day! You'll learn kiln carving, a technique for achieving bas relief, or carved effects, in your glass work by combining fusing and slumping. Kiln carving moves your glass into a 3D profile as you create texture and a sculptured nuance to your piece.

You'll choose from one of two designs – literally spelling "love," or filling the tableau with hearts. This is a perfect introduction to fused glass, or an opportunity to expand your techniques using the kiln.

Project

You'll make an 11" x 11" 3D panel to serve as a permanent valentine.

Materials

A $60 materials fee, included in the price of the class, covers everything you need.

    Anne Miller

    At heart, Anne is an artist and designer whose chosen mediums include concrete, textiles, clay, paper, metal, encaustic, stained, and now, fused glass. Her passion took her on many paths, including ceramics and portraiture, and eventually led to a career in graphic and textile design and as a Marimekko retailer, toy, and apparel designer. Combining her talents for design and business, she pursued a career with Herman Miller and Steelcase, which spanned 35 years. Recently retired, her passion for art and design has led her to BARN to immerse herself and focus on all forms of art-creating, designing, and having a terrific time.
