About The Event

The Glass Art Symposium is an online event during a whole week of October 2021 – showcasing Workshops & Demos from 20+ of the world’s best glass artists. Each workshop will be available to watch for free for 20 hrs.

And here is the description of my class!

Cast It – My Way  – Petra Kaiser

Glass Casting can be challenging but glass casting “My Way” is avoiding most of the pitfalls you might have encountered with other casting methods.  Making casting molds with Kaiser Lee Board will enable you to make your own shapes, which you can use countless times. With minimal effort, you will be able to create beautiful self-standing sculptures, which can be displayed just by themselves or mounted on a fused glass platform or stand.  You will also learn how to prepare a mold so that you will have very little to no coldworking to do if you don’t insist on a highly shiny rim. Using up random pieces of glass, you will be watching me making precast elements using the KLENDOX technique, making my own frit, and much more.  And of course, we will be filling the mold with all these goodies and setting it up for firing with a trick as well. Make sure to take some time for the Curious Mondo Glass Art Symposium 2021. Please use this affiliated link. Registering is free, but just in case you will decide to buy the full symposium I will get a little kickback.

Dear fellow Glass Artists! You might remember last fall’s glass symposium where I taught as one of the “Curious Mondo” Instructors.  Right after it, I was invited to teach a three-day class.  Yes, it is online and in true Curious Mondo style, you will be able to watch it for free during its first introduction from all over the world. While we are live, you can ask your questions via chat and I will be available during the class time to answer them.  Even if you don’t have the time to watch all of it, try to log in a few times and see if it might be of interest to you. During the live session, you will get the chance to purchase the class at a discounted price. You’ll find all the information you need on that site, so I won’t keep you any longer.  See you in the chat on Monday.  Live and Free*: Aug 30-Sept 1, 2021!
from 11:00am-2pm EDT
(8-11am PT, 9-12pm MT, 10-1pm CT,
3-6pm GMT, 4-7pm BST) https://www.curiousmondo.com/fused-glass-curves-free

BIG ARTS 2021
Dear Students,

thank you all for a great 2020/2021 class season at BIG ARTS in Sanibel, Florida. We managed quite well even with hiding our faces behind the masks. But as I said, it helped me to survive another year without plastic surgery.  undecided

Only one month is left in this 20/21 season. So far we have plans to teach both days, Thursday and Wednesday. The Thursday classes are sold out, but we do have room in the Wednesday classes.

If you would like to sign up, please call BIG ARTS at 239-395-0900 and we will see you next Wednesday, March 31, 2021, at 9:30 am.

If you can’t make it in April, we will start back up in October.

Either way, have a beautiful summer and stay in touch.

Yes, it is this time of the year again. You’ll find another article in the spring issue of Glass Pattern Quarterly. The slide show below is a companion to my article which gives you more insight into the Kaiser Lee Board mold-making process. As always, have fun and enjoy your creativity! petra
