This sculpture was commissioned to add to an existing decor that has an Asian vibe. The colors red, black and white are dominant with a graphic minimalist sensibility. The client had the idea of a totem with panels stacked vertically. The fluidity of the calligraphy creates a contrast with the simplicity of the red squares. Using opaque and transparent red to compose the squares gives the piece a sense of subtle movement while the clear glass nuggets and black stringers add texture and depth. The panel is framed in poplar painted black seated in a black granite base. The glass panel is 18.5" x 4.5". The dimensions for the entire sculpture are 25" H x 9.5" W x 7.5" D.

I create custom stained glass windows and fused glass art work with unique designs and handcrafted excellence. My passion for glass germinated in the cathedrals of France, developed roots in Hawai`i and is now branching out in Oregon. Commissioning artwork is very rewarding. The result is a piece of art to which you have a uniquely personal connection. Your involvement in the process can range from a general idea of the design or purpose of the piece to an ongoing conversation as we develop a design that expresses your voice. Your satisfaction is always my primary goal. Finding the perfect gift is time well spent when you give a quality handmade item that brings joy to the person who receives it. In addition to commission work, I create ready-to-purchase boutique items each of which is unique. From fused glass sculptures that bring new energy into a space, fused glass table ware for that special occasion, to personal items for the office and library, or one of a kind jewelry, you'll find your next piece to gift or treasure at Caron Art Glass.

For Custom Stained Glass Pendant Light with chainMichelle was a pleasure to work with and worked very hard to make my vision a reality--while making suggestions along the way. She was always available, responsive, and accountable. The lamp exceeded my expectations and I wouldn't hesitate to work with Michelle again.

For stained glass for transom window over front doorWhat a wonderful artist Michelle is! After meeting with us initially to better understand what we had in mind for the transom window, she prepared several artist drawings with suggested themes. Every one was a possibility that we could have been pleased with. With her talent it made it difficult to decide. We settled on one, then changed to another, and finally after incorporating elements from more than one, and with further changes and additions we finally settled on what has become a work of art in the 6' wide arched transom window above our 8' front doors. It incorporates elements of the family's heritage with a truly wonderful rondel at it's center.

For Gregory's Stained GlassFrom initial contact to delivery, Michelle has been nothing but a consummate professional. The piece she made is not only gorgeous, but exactly what I was hoping for when I first posted my request.
I could not possibly be more happy with the work she has done, the speed she made the piece with, and her communication throughout the entire process, both in explaining the options available, and turning my idea into a treasured glass artwork.

For bathroom skylightI have never worked with an artist without physically meeting and seeing the artist's work, but my experience with Michelle Caron was as close to being there as possible. I was able to describe my ideas for the stain glass skylight, and received an abundance of her visions and colors throughout the sketching of the project before it was clear that we both were happy with her plans. I was even more delighted to receive such a beautifully detailed piece of art that expresses Michelle's talent and CARE for the happiness of the client. We are fortunate to showcase such a piece of art in our, now enhanced, home.
