Milon Townsend

Focus on Flamework

An Introduction to Using BoroColour

              An Introduction to Using Borocolour is the very first in a series of five videotapes in which glass artist Milon Townsend clearly illustrates many of the techniques and principes that can be applied to creating artwork with borosilicate glass. This first tape explains the natures of the different color families, including the stable colors; striking colors; oxidation/reduction colors; amber/purple colors: and the cadmium color group.

The video combines demonstrations with interviews of Townsend, showing and telling the important foundational concepts for the artists who wants to have control of the final results. One of the unique aspects of the series is the inclusion of a full-color booklet with each tape, allowing the artist to follow along while watching. This way you'll have a source of information on the work area without having to set up a VCR/TV!

This series of videotapes would not have been possible without a partnership with Northstar Glassworks and Coatings by Sandberg, who have generously underwritten the project. Both companies are clearly demonstrating their ongoing commitment to education, and their support and assistance to the growing field of borosilicate glass artistry.

Townsend lives and works just outside a small village in upstate New York, with his wife Kiyoko and son Timo.
