We are delighted to introduce our second course with guest lampworking artist Guido Adam from Germany. He creates magical borosilicate objects which push the technical boundaries of colour and form and creativity. Adam has been working in soft and hard glass since 2002 using traditional techniques derived from his studies in Murano, the States and Japan. This class will teach you so many specifics about marbles.

During the Beauty of the Chaos Marble Kingdom Guido Adam works with hard glass and concentrates on marbles and pendants based on working with fuming with silver and gold, silver leaf and foil and a select few borosilicate colors. We will be working with solid boro & profile tubing Conturax... And we're making FROGS!

This E-course is a stand-alone course which is complimented by both Guido Adam 1 – The Beauty of the Wearable Art Kingdom and Guido Adam 3: Beauty of the animal kingdom courses. Our Guido Adam 2 course will push your skill level, help you understand tricky marble making techniques and give you confidence in your own glass making abilities whilst empowering you to own your creativity.
