Creativity—Using the Rhythm and Harmony of Multiples
by Milon Townsend
Combining multiple pieces to create a larger composition is a way to combine similar or different objects into rhythmic arrangements.

It helps artists to consider how various elements that they have lying around might possibly work together.

What’s New
What’s New offers information on the latest in books and patterns plus new glass and tools for hot, warm, and cold glass artists and hobbyists. This is the perfect place to keep up with the innovations that will make working in glass easier and more enjoyable.
