Because this is billed a Masterclass, I’m not surprised that it would hit the ground running, so to speak. But I agree that a touch more prep discussion would have gone a long way in making this a more rounded video. While we see Kristina Logan applying the first trail of glass on a beautifully prepared mandrel, for instance, there’s no mention of her choice of bead release or dipping technique. (One dip or three?) But given the choice between sludge talk or inspiration, I’d take inspiration any day.

While she is filmed working on her amazing beads, Kristina does not “teach” the viewer how to make them, but instead, like you described above, she walks the viewer her creative process and discusses her methods and inspirations.

Anyhow, its great viewing!
