Some of the best information about kiln forming glass comes from Paul Tarlow over at Helios Glass…fusedglass.org…Fused Glass Books. All of those places. He has a fantastic line of e-books that I’ve written about here before. His newest book is, as I said in the title, super cool. As a graphic artist as well as a glass artist I appreciate being able to create graphic elements that have a lot of “how’d you do that?” in them. This e-books provides you with techniques that you can use to make some really dynamic designs. Art of the Line for Fused Glass…check it out.
