Classes

How can you find inspiration consistently? And how can you then translate it into compelling, satisfying works of glass? Join artist Ted Sawyer, Bullseye’s Director of Research and Education, for a live online class that teaches how he generates ideas, how he explores and develops them, and how he realizes them in the glass studio. Class includes 14 unique project lessons, long-term access to 9+ hours of class video, 1 live orientation session, 4 live online class sessions, and a 75-page Class Guide.
