In this, number four of Jim Kervin's "Beadmaker Series", we study the work of nationally known artist, Kate Fowle Meleney. Learn some of the secrets that Kate uses in creating her intriguing signature beads. Her beads are naturalistic and mysterious! Topics include: how to use optic molds to create innovative canes and murrini; how to make barnacle murrini, periwinkle snail beads, conch shell beads; Kate's method of winding and paddling beads; how to make and decorate glass beads using Thompson enamels; and the process of applying electroformed copper to the surface of a bead. This booklet is another great supplement to Jim Kervin's comprehensive text: More Than You Ever Wanted to Know About Glass Beadmaking.
