Dog Portrait In Stained Glass
This custom stained glass artwork was commissioned to memorialize a family pet that had passed on. I developed the design from a photo, and the results were surprisingly accurate. This artwork was constructed with the copper foil method. All of the solder-cover copper was darkened to a charcoal gray with a chemical patina. This artwork was about 20" wide and 20" high, and was shipped ready to hang in the client's kitchen window.

Transparent Dreams Stained Glass
I have been making stained glass for 50 years, since I took it up as a hobby at the age of eleven. I have been a full-time stained glass artist since 1975. I've won numerous awards for both my design and my craftsmanship.
I have completed commissions throughout the U.S. and Canada, and shipped my ready-made artworks as far as Dublin, Ireland. I also teach my unique methodology for making precision stained glass in a 43-hour set of DVDs, and I have sold hundreds of these sets in 15 countries so far.
As a visual artist, I invite you to view my images and compare the design and craftsmanship for yourself. Whether you are considering the purchase of an already-made stained glass artwork or commissioning new custom stained or beveled glass, I am confident that I can address both your desires and needs.
