The Flow Magazine (Spring 2010) is a print back-issue of The Flow focused on flameworking and related glass arts, featuring step-by-step project instruction from working artists. This issue includes tutorials by the following artists:
Sean Mueller: Sandblasting—Integrating Lampworking with Graphic Design

In a lampworking studio, an issue like this is typically used as a bench-side reference for learning new processes, building repeatable project workflows, and picking up small production tips that improve consistency and finish quality.
How it is used:
-
Sean Mueller: Sandblasting—Integrating Lampworking with Graphic Design
- Create lampworked components intended for surface decoration
- Apply graphic design concepts to plan imagery and layout
- Use sandblasting techniques to add crisp, matte-etched patterning and contrast to the glass surface
-
Todd Deem: Sounds of Nature—A Djembe Hand Drum
- Build a hollow sculptural form using multiple sizes of glass tubing
- Add decoration using colorful striping techniques
- Finish the piece by fitting a drum skin on top to create an actual playable hand drum
