In the twelth booklet of this series, we present the work of the bead duo of Carol Fonda and Monty Clark. They walk us through a number of different dichroic bead styles, types, and techniques. We start with learning how they form their extensively fanned sculptural lampworked pieces from the more viscous Schott and Bullseye glasses. The greater viscosities of these two glasses produce the sculptural effects demonstrated here. While reading this booklet, you will gain an appreciation for how versatile a tool like tweezers can be. Then they will share with us how to deep carve fused dichroic pieces to give them more pizzazz, and they'll show us a number of techniques for etching images into the dichroic coating, which can be employed when making lampworked or fused beads to make them more interesting.
