Helios Fused Glass -Austin, Texas

Advanced Powder: Wafers & Cold Fusion


Once you work with glass powders you may never go back.

Our advanced powder class will focus on two exceptional techniques: multi-stencil powder wafers and cold-fusion.

The advanced powder wafer techniques will allow you to create elaborate imagery on stand-alone thin pieces of glass that you can use for components in other projects.

With cold-fusion techniques you can create three dimensional objects with powder, water, and a freezer (yes, a freezer). Your objects will go into the kiln without any mold at all!

Paul's work with powders has been exhibited at Bullseye Connection Gallery and is featured in Contemporary Glass Enameling: Fusing with Powders, Paints, and Frit by Kay Bain Weiner.
