I got this information today. I've taken these classes and they are wonderful and I can highly recommend both of these teachers. And I can recommend Asheville as a destination, too.

In this two-day class James will personally help each student to form a more perfect understanding of hot glass and the dynamics of bead making. This class will help resolve many of the self-taught problems that the intermediate student faces every day. This class will help the student identify and apply heat with greater skill. James will help the student identify and apply heat with greater skill. The student will then be guided to a greater skill level in the use of the carbon paddle for long bead shaping. James will be happy to demonstrate any other techniques in his bag of tricks and techniques, just ask.
Finally, with new heat skills and a greater dexterity, the student will be tutored in the proper control of pattern and design. This is a great class for the student who wants to rise to a new level of understanding of hot glass bead making.
