Double Thick Bevels For Maximum Rainbows
This stained glass and beveled glass set of (two) panels graces the main staircase in a residence in Denver. i used 3/8" thick bevels instead of the normal 3/16" that most bevels are made of, and the prismatic effect of the bevels is greatly enhanced by this option, creating more and deeper rainbows that the thinner cousins. They cost a little more, but they are so worth it. The two border colors are actually shades of gray; that shows how poorly stained glass photographs. The pale strips of colored glass within the beveled cluster are peacock blue.

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.
