Lampwork Bead Artists

Borosilicate

Emily Lake-"I primarily make borosilicate pendants such as treescapes, seascapes, implosion flowers and many more. I have been working with borosilicate since 1978. I teach off mandrel borosilicate pendant classes around the world, as well as beginning soft glass beadmaking at Annie Rose, New Zealand. My work has been exhibited internationally, and more recently I won "Best Beads in Show" at the Sydney Bead & Gem Show 2005" ~Emily.

FiredDesires-"This medium of glass art will never fail to intrigue me. To obtain the same effect day after day of an indivdual color can elude you at times. What area of the flame to use?, reduction/oxidizing flame?, how long in the flame? , flame strike or kiln strike?, how many cool downs? What color combo's work the best? The variables are endless and can also vary from batch to batch of the glass. The answers can keep you fascinated or frustrated, all at the same time, for hours on end." ~Catharine

can be personalized to represent a person. I teach private lessons in my home studio and I teach intermediate techniques (chintz, plaids, and brights) at Blue Moon Glassworks in Austin, TX". ~Anne~

FiredDesires- "The fascination of making miniature works of art in the flame has been a part of my life for several years. Starting with a base idea, the glass seems to take it's own direction at times, with the end result being not only asthetically pleasing, but can be very unique as well. I find the flame not only hypnotic and relaxing but a tool with which one can express theirselves." ~Catharine
