Stained Glass Heart
This was a commission done for a client who wanted to thank someone for helping them when in need. With a few email conversations I was able to convey some ideas and come up with a poem that really hit home. Making projects for customers that have deep personal meanings to them is something that I really enjoy doing.

I love to make custom one-off stained glass pieces. Even if I try and make the same thing twice they are never truly the same.
Since as long as I can remember, I've always liked building and creating things. I've never been able to consider myself an artist until I started working with stained glass. I could never draw anything other than straight lines with the help of a ruler, painting only if I copied it from something else. But mechanical things always came easy to me. Taking a piece of raw steel, some wire, glass, rubber and plastic and making something with a purpose, taking individual pieces that meant nothing by themselves and creating something that did something other than just look pretty on the wall, something that moved, something that transformed energy into something else. I found that working with glass does this to me.
Tell me your story, tell me why you want your art piece made, give me inspiration to make something that will continue your story for all those that see our work.

Sep 30, 2021I had probably an odd request, to make a stained glass replica of my nursing school pin. Vince took time to ask more about the project, and what I was trying to accomplish, which was central to having such a wonderful finished product. I could not be happier with the result

Oct 11, 2022WOW! It turned out so perfect! My 27 year old son, was always so extra, so his urn just had to be extra, as well. I am beyond happy with this little chest Vince made, Thank you so much for the communication, the professionalism and the quality of this piece.

Oct 7, 2019Vince saved the day by repairing my broken, jagged sun catcher. He turned the project around in a week, and it looks brand new. Highly recommend! Thank you Vince!

Jan 3, 2023Vince made me a wonderful glass box that I could give my wife for Christmas. I had a limited budget and Vince patiently worked with me until I was happy with both design and price. Prompt professional responses and patience were constant throughout the process on Vince's side. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Vince Rinner and Glass Art For The World to anyone looking for a beautiful custom stained glass piece.
