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.

For glass suncatcher
Vince was wonderful, in a word! He was easy to talk with, kept me informed with pictures of each step of this project. He cares. Wanted to know the 'story', which helps him in his craft, and it shows. I saw the final picture of this sun catcher before he sent it, but once I received it, I couldn't believe how PERFECT it is! Even more beautiful than the pictures. I will definitely recommend Vince to my friends & encourage them to view his work. Thank you so, soooo much, Vince!

For Suncatcher
Vince has great to work with. After doing a quick random Google Search, I was drawn to Vince and he proved to be an excellent choice. His responses to my emails were immediate and thorough. He designed a gift for me to give a couple who performed CPR on me after suffering from Cardiac Arrest. He loved the idea of the gift and came up with a wonderful idea for a sun catcher. Vince sent frequent updates and pictures as he was working on the project. At the conclusion of the project, a picture was sent, details of how the sun catcher was to be sent, payment method, etc. upon receiving the sun catcher, I was even happier than before if possible. I liked it so much I ordered another for me. Vince, THANK YOU!

For Stained Glass Boxes
Vince 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.
