Berkeley, CA Feb. Travel Classes and Workshops Dates for 2014Ĭontact Studios for sign ups and information So sign up today for a class that suites your fusing experience and desire whether it be a beginning or master class we have something for you. Using this medium guarantees to add fun and spectacular detail to your fused glass work. His FlexiGlass Medium that he developed has captured the attention of all fusers around the world. In addition David will share other amazing techniques and applications that can be applied to other fused glass works from jewelry to plate work. This technique will enable you to make individual images, as well as glass that could be used as elements in finished pieces. Students will have the opportunity to practice the various processes before they make their own fused glass tapestry. This is a totally unique way of creating imagery in glass. Using only a wire stylus, he is able to achieve amazing images with a textural effect.
His approach involves layering different colors of glass frit in a confined space (much like sand painting). In his class, David passes along his amazing method of frit work he calls Glass Tapestry.
Since introducing his innovative techniques to the class art community a few years ago, David Alcala’s classes have become one of most popular classes offered around the country. Keep up the good work and I look forward to meeting you again”. I only got to try your technique twice since, but I am hooked! I have been practicing. Gerry Phibbs, International Glass Artist Guild I can remember when Dan & Boyce dared to begin production of fusing friendly glass many years ago, and I suspect your contributions may well open up similar horizons for glass folks 'round the world” I've got a feeling that this new "Flexi-Glass" technique will bring many additional changes to the glass art field, and to kiln-formed glass in particular. Watching David work is like watching a musician playing an instrument. Davidʼs Glass Tapestry technique is quite amazing where as he turned his working surface 90 degrees onto its edge to create some of the most unique landscapes ever made with fused glass. His Flexi-Glass Medium is a great addition to the fusers palette. He is one of the few actual innovators in our industry. "It is always exciting to see what David has come up with. (Retailers of Art Glass and Supplies) Art Glass Connection You are an amazing artist and it is so generous of you to share and teach your wonderful techniques! RAGS members are still posting their positive comments and feedback and they are raving about your classes! thanks for helping me to think creatively again.” “I wanted to take a moment to personally thank you so much for teaching at and participating in our annual national conference. His quick and fun techniques, coupled with his clear step-by-step directions and the Flexi-Glass Medium, will form the basis for creative new design directions for years to come.”Įric Lovell, Founder/President Uroboros Glass Transferring his sand painting skills into fusible glass frit allowed him to vitrify and preserve his dramatic imagery as solid glass. “David Alcala has developed and mastered techniques unique in the glass arts.
