The Penland Book of Glass: Master Classes in Flamework Techniques is a magnificent book showcasing the work of ten leading glass artists. The book includes biographical essays, detailed how-to steps with photography demonstrating key techniques, and beautiful gallery images of flameworked glass art. In this video, Robin Dreyer, Communications Manager at Penland School of Crafts, describes the aims of this amazing series of books that the renowned crafts school and Lark Books have created together. Earlier entries in the series include titles devoted to jewelry, handmade books, woodworking, and ceramics.
Robin’s comments in the video capture the sensibility and range of the series very well. The incredible art from glass flameworkers presented in The Penland Book of Glass, the how-to instruction, and the really well-crafted essays about life and work philosophy from the featured artists make this a book we at Lark, and from Robin’s comments I think Penland School of Crafts, recommend highly. ~ Ray Hemachandra, senior editor
