This is by far the most complete resource for the hot glass artist. Plenty of technical info and eye candy. Keep it goin!!!
Cody OttmerThis magazine is great, but has little for beginning or intermediate beginners. Except for the 'Wow!' factor, of course. Articles are well written, good info on hot glass gatherings and education, photos are amazing eye-candy that can almost have you dabbing the drool off your chin. They try hard to make sure boro workers are shown making things other than pipes, which is nice, although they do include that art form as well. The soda-lime/soft glass workers are well represented too: beads, sculpture, tips, tutorials nothing that a beginner could manage, but education starts somewhere, as does inspiration. I have yet to show magazine to anyone w/o several 'Wow' responses to the works shown in the photos, even those who haven't the foggiest what's involved in making the pieces.Received 1st issue within 1 1/2 weeks of ordering!! Wrapped well. Thanks!
