Class: Creative Concepts in Kilnforming, with Morgan Van Madison

This class covers techniques Morgan uses to achieve the distinct linear quality and crisp character of his glass work. Through group exercises and one-on-one attention, the class will explore aspects of the process, from developing ideas in a sketchbook and executing them in glass to preparing work for firing in the kiln. Three different projects will challenge students to relax creative inhibitions while thinking critically about concept and its relationship to technique. The aim of this class is to give students the tools to pursue their own unique visions efficiently and confidently and to have fun while doing so.
