It took a few days to sink in, but in the end, I really enjoyed my PMC classes. My mind has been rolling around a few ideas of how to incorporate glass and PMC. Rings come to mind almost immediately. And, finally, ideas for my cuff links are coming to fruition. (I'm so happy about this one.)
For those who are interested, here's the quick rundown of the classes. Two classes. One in basic PMC skills. The other in rings. (I enjoyed the rings class more.) Three pieces where made. One non-descript pendant in the first class and two rings in the second. Instructor for both classes was Patrik Kusek.
While I may not be "on the PMC bandwagon," I am traveling beside it.
Now, this opens up a new world to me that has been fairly unexplored, glass and PMC. While there are a number of artists who are doing a variety of things in this area, those numbers are few and far between. This appears to be a real opportunity.
I also have been asked to donate some pieces to the BAGI auction. It's probably about time I get off my duff and create a few pieces for the auction and finish the videos (Pulling Schott and Pumpkin Magic).
