Fougerousse, who works on all commissions as draftsman, painter, sculptor, and craftsman in every medium. The studio specializes in custom stained glass design and manufacturing, mosaic work, and figurative painting and sculpture. Our clients include churches, businesses and private residences. For the last 15 years, the studio has striven to perfect its ability to create works of art that celebrate order, balance, and beauty.

We provide the same service in coordinating multifaceted residential and commercial commissions as well.
