Title: Weekday Series: “Fused Glass Sunflower Suncatcher”

Description: This weekday class is an introduction to glass fusing. We will be cutting glass and fitting it to form a sunflower.  It will then be kiln fired to fuse the glass pieces together.  We will be discussing the ‘how and why’ of creating a kiln firing schedule; a great collaboration of art and science. Please note: This project must be fired in our kiln to be completed. Students may return to Burritt the following week to pick up their suncatchers.

Her work has been purchased for private collections in several countries, was requested for Christmas display at The White House, and is carried in galleries in four states.
