Y'all ain't seen stained glass til ya seen Skip's!
I've seen a lot and this is the best there is, period!
Just a warning to those of you who have been exulting
on the Ken Kesey thread: the last few shots could cause
serious flashbacks!
I lost a long time today staring through the viewfinder!

Whoa man...
Da REALLY COOL door!! Awesome woodwork Reilly. It looks bitchin'.
Nice to see some good pictures of it.
I pulled out my Tiffany reproduction glass for that one. The Tree-trunk and ground are salvaged bits out of a demolished
125 year old window that is now in a shoe-box in my garage. Nice to recycle them back into a living window.
I've got a few new things finished this month. I just learned enameling, so I've had the kiln running for the last week or so
making cloisonne. I'll dredge some pics up if anyone is interested.

Da door is just glorified firewood and a
carrier for Da Art.

Small window with engraved stars and metal flowers.
Erik's favorite. Venus rising on the horizon. He's pressuring me not to sell it.

Enamelwork: Sorry the pictures are way larger than they are in real life.
I just started doing this for the first time about 3 weeks ago. I'm trying to take up an art form that doesn't fVck up my health so much.
My first project: Center in 2" by 2" We've been framing them in leftover bamboo flooring.
2nd project: 5" by 5"
Screwing around making jewelry pendants and a duplicate of project # 1.
Bluebird: 2" x 2" A miniature copy of a portion of a full-sized window I built. Doesn't have a frame yet.

Skippy, why does it mess up your health? Is it because of soldering fumes?

Yes, lead. She got poisoning a couple of years ago, as well as a general health deterioration from the lead and flux after 20 years of doing stained glass.
Cloisonne is clean by comparison.

The work is beautiful. The craftsman style door and tiffany glass make for a great combo.
