I have recently opened my beautiful, spacious (2,400 sq ft) Maya Moon Studio in Santa Fe to teach the processes that I use in my sculpture. I also plan to teach a variety of workshops to re-awaken the creative core in adults who do not consider themselves to be creative! I believe that as each of us accesses our creative cores, we can bring empowering, healing energy to the planet. Stay tuned for updates.

Kiln Building Workshop
March 22 - 23 (9 - 6 pm both days)

Maya Moon Studio will be hosting a workshop led by Larry Fielder, an artist who has built many glass kilns for various processes such as fusing, casting and annealing. He has also taught numerous kiln building workshops.

Workshop cost is $300, with 1/2 fee at time of registration in order to hold your place. Payments can be made by check or by Visa/Mastercard.

A large bell kiln, approximately 3 ft by 6 ft by 1.5 ft tall, will be built during the workshop. The building techniques can be applied to all sizes of kilns. Larry will demonstrate the entire kiln building process, from start to finish. In addition, each participant will receive a complete bound set of notes with sources for materials and pictures of the process. Options for different types of materials used in kiln construction will be discussed.

Larry will discuss the various design considerations for various glass processes. Elements will be attached to the kiln lid and walls with quartz tubes and connected to a Digitry controller. In addition, Larry will show how to build your own controller. He will also bring along a controller he has built.
