Next Student Project


I spent a bit of time this last weekend looking for a new project for beginning glass students.  
Change is good ! 
Nothing wrong with the old project it was just time for a change. 
A nice oval landscape with the sun setting over some small hills and a stream in the foreground. It has all the necessary things for a beginning class: straight lines, inside curves, outside curves, and some random wavy lines. 
All the things a beginning student needs 
to learn to cut and foil.

I went ahead and made the project to judge the timing for a class. With a bit of nice glass it cleans up well don't you think?  A piece the students will be proud to show..."I made this in class ! " (big smile) 

Just so you know, the next beginning class is Saturday, April 25th from 9am to around 5 pm.
The investment is only $125.00 with everything included except lunch. You do not need to purchase glass or tools to take the class! 
This is a real savings for you.

First Stained Glass Class



The first class in our new location.
The polar vortex really slowed things down at the studio.
It is hard to give a class if no one can get to you.
But, we finally got it together and the first class was a success.
Congratulations to the students who made a great first project.
Another class next month...watch this space.

Autumn Ginkgo Leaves



A few ginkgo leaves  in their fall colors.
The branches stretched  out across the glass.
Some bright fall accents and some very textured glass as a surround.
It is winter here...still.... but we can remember autumns past.
Remember the up coming beginning class on March 15th. There is only one space left.

Etched Glass


A little photo practice and some nice etching on this glass.
Just thought I would share it with you.
It is not easy to get good images of glass, so a bit of practice helps. 

Remember the glass class March 15th, if you would like to learn the art of stained glass. Sign up in the right side bar.

Very Blue


I have always love the way light shines through glass.
In this case, a antique bottle in window light from the back-right.
Just for you to enjoy.

Agate Panel


A quick photo of the agate panel as it goes out of the door.
The image was taken several months ago but the panel just sold.
An abstract using 3 agate slices and a hanging crystal.
All surrounded with bevels and red accents.
A really nice window hanging.
