There’s a new e-book available from fusedglass.org and it’s called Tricks with Transparency and looks like it’s a super good time. They’ve based it on one of their Fusing Fridays projects. It shows tips and techniques to use transparent glass to create really cool effects. And it’s only $15! They talk about understanding transparent glass and layering. I think the chapter on depth, adjacency and transparency sounds really interesting. Then there’s color dilution in chapter three and color combinations and chapter four. More information than you’ll know what to do with. Send some pictures of what you make with the information!
