BEAD MAKING II

These are 3 out takes of a recent series shot Heather Doyle's well-equipped Chicago Avenue Fire Arts Center (CAFAC) in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This is a non-profit devoted to the teaching of various fire arts . . . neon, encaustic, enameling, metal sculpting, welding, blacksmithing, etc.

 

It's a fabulous place for teaching as well as providing a well-equipped studio for fire artists to complete commissioned projects.

 

During the Summer, the University of Minnesota has an outreach program for young people 8yo to mid-teens. They are bussed to CAFAC in the morning for a week to learn a particular fire art. This is was a glass bead making class, and I have to say it was intriguing.

 

I've been shooting various scene at the Center for over a year now, and I always learn something new..
