As we being our glass unit, I wanted to share the videos and powerpoint I will be using to introduce the technique and one of my favorite artists with the students; Dale Chihuly.
The powerpoint introduces the materials and techniques used to create many types of current day artwork made of glass. I took a class on glassblowing back in the winter of 2013 in Berea. The powerpoint shares some of the images from that experience.
The videos are from YouTube. It showcases some of Daly Chihuly's earlier work but also his growth of how his work has evolved to today's magical experiences he creates. You can see some of his work in person by visiting the Maker's Mark distillery in Loretto, KY.
