I started my stained glass work by constructing this very graphic styled piece. The outside contains diagonal pieces that are broken up with alternating clear and brown colored pieces of glass. At each edge I softened the overall look by adding small sections of circles. This softening is also made effective by adding the small rounded pieces of quartz in the center. Small crystals of clear glass were added to help refract the light that shone through the glass as it hung in a window.
The overall size is approximately 12 inches square. |
In my next project I wanted to copy a scene I put together as a composite in Photoshop using three different images, the moon, the boat, and the background. I printed this composite and traced it onto brown paper. Then I cut individual glass pieces to make the final stained glass image.
The overall size is approximately 12 inches square. |
