This is a second book in a Series "Weekend Projects..." where I tried to provide day-by-day instructions for six different projects which use one common element: stringers. We often underestimate the power of stringers and do not use them. Meanwhile stringers is an impressive artistic element and this book proofs that.
This book could be useful both for readers of the first book and for new readers who want to try new techniques and make impressive glass artworks. Those, who already purchased the first book will find not only descriptions of new techniques, but also some useful enhancements of the 3D Chevrons technique.
There are 2 groups of projects: those which could be done using leftovers of 3D Chevrons projects, and those which use a different technique. I provided additional guidance for the first group for those, who have no leftovers, but want to make them.
1. A decorative plate “Time Wells”. In this project you create a strong optical illusion to make an impression of 3D objects placed on a flat surface
2. Wall Clock “Night City”. In this project you use color gradients to "uncover" hidden objects.
3. A decorative plate “Broken Illusions”. A relatively simple, but attractive project: the plate composed of multiple squares which use different colors for creating an illusion of broken objects
4. Wall clock “Rainbow time”. This is the most simple project in the book, but the resultant clock looks very attractive.
In addition to these projects there are 2 other which use stringers, but not connected to the Chevrons technique. These are:
5. A decorative plate “Stairway to Heaven”. And this project is also about illusion. By arranging stringers in a special way you create an illusion of 3D hex stairs.
6. A decorative plate “Summer Waltz”. A variation of the well-known project. Unlike in the original project I used a special way of arranging stringers to get more predictable results.
There are 80 pages, more than 60 pictures and illustrations.
