What is the best way to start glass blowing?
I have been searching to no avail. I am interested in getting into glass blowing as a hobbie (at first). I am located in Santa Cruz CA.
Does anyone know of classes, or someone to apprentice under?
I like glass work from small animals and pipes to large vases and bowls.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
first look up lamp working and glass blowing (both explained on wikipedia). Small animals and pipes would be made by lamp working and large things with glass blowing.
I would suggest to start with lamp working. Glass blowing is next to impossible to do just by yourself, you always need somebody to help you. It's also more expensive. Lamp working you will also eventually be able to do at home.
Look for a lampworking class near you.
