Mosaic Artist Roxana Nizza is coming to Harmony!
 Mosaic Pet-traiture Workshop 
(Fun with Mosaic Fur-damento)
 
Saturday & Sunday, September 30 & October 1 
9:00 am - 4:00 pm each day 
Tuition of $350 includes all materials 

Learn to create amazing, adorable and accurate representations of your favorite fur-babies in this two-day mosaic workshop!

For a lot of us, pets play an important and significant role in our lives.  Many of us have been lucky enough to have a special pet in our lives and sadly, we've also experienced the sorrow of losing a beloved pet.  Without a doubt, the relationship with your pet is a one-of-a-kind bond, unlike any other.  Creating a portrait of your pet honors that connection.
 
This two-day workshop is designed for students with some previous experience.  Students should be familiar with glass cutting and mosaic nipping tools.
 
You will create an 8" x 10"  portrait of your pet using stained glass while learning the basic principles of mosaic.  Further, you will also learn about tesserae size and shape and how it relates to your mosaic andamento, color value and shading.
 
Roxana Nizza is an extremely accomplished mosaic artist and teacher.  She has a thriving career creating high-end custom residential mosaic installations and has taught many classes in all aspects of glass mosaics.  Join us for this unique and creative learning experience!

  Fusing is the fastest growing segment of glass as an art medium.  Intro to Glass Fusing
 
is designed for the novice who wants to learn the basics of creating kiln-formed glass
as well as for the intermediate fuser who wants to improve their understanding of
how glass changes in the kiln.

Each week, we'll spend some time in discussion of kiln theory and how to fire to achieve the desired results.  We'll then move forward into cutting and assembling the weekly project using skills that were learned in that session.  Fusing is both a technical pursuit for artists and an artistic pursuit for technicians!

Creating Texture Plates and Molds Creating Custom Texture Plates
What's worse?  Paying $40 for a texture mold that looks just like your friend's mold? Paying $40 for a texture mold that's only 7" when your slumping mold is 11" ?

It's time to break free from the mass-produced texture mold cage.
Deborah Ellington has been teaching clay and ceramics for decades.  She is totally qualified to take glass people and turn us into productive and successful mold makers.
The molds shown above were made in two hours and I didn't even plan ahead to get
some shapey things to help me create unique molds.

In this class, you'll build your own clay board, you'll use a large rolling pin and you'll have access to a variety of tools for texturing.  When the class is over, you'll take most of these tools home with you so that you can do it again!  We are eager for you to be successful and create one-of-a-kind artwork so that you can break out of the "mold".

Oh, by the way, we'll be making slump molds too!

News Flash!  We taught the Deep Drop Ring Vessel class on Sunday.  I realized that the $23 drop out mold could be made with $1 worth of clay!

Learning Zentangle is fun and easy. You'll takes dots, lines, curves and circles and
pair them with repetitive marks.  It's simple enough that anyone can make
exciting abstract art with minimal instruction.
 
Get Basically Tangled! 
Join Zedi, Certified Zentangle Teacher, for a relaxing time spent exploring the
practice of Zentangle. Doodling is mindless; Zentangle is mindful, creative and
relaxing. This meditative art form creates peace of mind and pieces of art!
 
Looking at finished pieces of the Zentangle Method, people are often overwhelmed.
How do I start? Where do I start? Just as in life, breaking down the complex
designs into simple steps allows you to enjoy the process.  Once you learn the
Zentangle Method, it can be practiced anywhere. The only tools needed are a pen,
a pencil and paper. It is an activity you can use to pass time creatively while
waiting at the airport, the dentist's office or the pickup line at school!
 
Beyond the Basics!
In this faster paced session, Zedi will introduce more ways to use your newfound Zentangle Method.  We will discuss the rules to break and how to break them as
 well as different media and alternate tools.  You will create a base for a
Zentangle mosaic to be executed outside of class time.

Thursday, July 27

No Experience Required!
Beginning Stained Glass
 
Stained Glass has been a cherished art form for more than 1000 years. 
Prior to the invention of tools that make it easy for modern artisans, apprentices
trained under proficient craftsmen to learn the trade.

In the 21st century, up-to-date tools make it easy to learn the rewarding craft of
stained glass.  During this hands-on class, you will learn all the skills necessary to
complete a stained glass panel using the copper foil technique that was developed by
Louis Comfort Tiffany.  Each student will complete a  9" x 14" panel, including framing
with a rigid metal border.  Every class session is filled with fun as you learn to
select glass,cut & fit, foil, solder, frame and polish your artwork.  We don't have to
teach you to admire it and beam with pride, that comes naturally!

Please visit harmony prior to class to pick and prepare your pattern.

Pines at Sunset by Paul Messink
Pines at Sunset by Paul Messink


Harmony is proud to offer another opportunity to learn from an internationally-acclaimed
visiting artist.  Paul Messink is coming to Harmony to teach his glass painting and fusing techniques, combining traditional Reusche with modern vibrant enamels.  Using clear glass, Paul paints layers so that genuine
depth is achieved.

Paul uses these skills to create unique compositions in multi-layered glass  panels that present nature in deep dimension. 

In his own words,  "My goal is to draw the viewer into the work of art,
transforming a painting (an historically 2D art form) into something more.
My outdoor subjects often recede into a foggy distance, creating an
ethereal, almost ghostly effect. 

Each student will make at least four and up to six projects in class.  The dimensional projects will be six layers thick to create depth.  Paul will teach layering,
diminishing size and color, texture, and translucence.
