Creating art, using everyday objects

January 16, 2019 By Special to The Laker/Lutz News

A class at the Land O’ Lakes Branch Library, 2818 Collier Parkway, recently had a chance to learn how to transform an ordinary wine glass or bottle into a work of art. Helen McDaniel, who taught the class, demonstrated how to paint designs on glass. The teacher, who is a snowbird from Ohio and a part-time Land O’ Lakes resident, collects bottles in Ohio for the class, and her daughter, Diana, flattens them out — using the intense heat from a kiln. The library offers classes and activities appealing to people with all sorts of interests.

Susan Breakiron-Lowe, of Lutz, paints a series of small flowers on her flattened piece of glass. She frequently takes part in classes at the library.
