The Franklin Art Association invites the public to our Wednesday, April 3, meeting. We will warmly greet Guest Demo-Artist, Phil Pariseau; glass artist for this month’s public demonstration. The free to the public meetings are held at the Franklin Senior Center at 6:30 p.m. He will show our audience his approach to glass heat slumping and his unique approach to glass utensil making. 

 

Phil’s early interest in glass began with a glass blowing class more than 20 years ago and has developed into a new passion for creating kiln-formed pieces of art and unique glass gifts.
  Combining various techniques of fusing, raking, temperature manipulation, and slumping glass, his pieces often produce a flow that results in a unique design to capture the light beautifully. He uses the warmth and the beautiful color palette of Cape Cod to create distinctive works of art glass including votive candle holders, plates, sculptures, wall hangings, wine coasters, and business card holders. Many pieces are one of a kind. 

Phil currently has pieces at Creative Hands Gallery in Osterville, Mass. https://www.creativehandsgallery.com and also, http://www.etsy.com/shop/coastalglassinfusion.
