An abstract agate panel I did about two years
ago. I finally sold it in July '00 to a guy who stopped in
to the studio to buy some scrap glass for his wife. He gave
it to her as an anniversary present.

This piece is on my web site in two places,
because it has been two different pieces. The head is made
of agate, and it is one of my favorite things I've ever
done. It's also what I traded for a '62
Triumph.

This is a piece that I call "Frank Lloyd Agate"
It's kind of a Frank Lloyd Wright / Prairie style design,
but with a gorgeous slice of agate in the center. The piece
is 10" x 14 " and contains Spectrum, Bullseye, GNA, FNA
among the glasses

The first piece I made with an agate in it, this
15" x 15" panel uses some blue Spectrum glass, as well as 4
bevels and some clear.

This small (7" x 12") panel uses a slice of
brown agate, and some brown Kokomo and green, heavily
textured Kokomo. It is entitled "Agate
Mountain".

This was an interesting piece to design and
construct. I wanted to use the agate and the bevels, and
this is what came out. I found an amber glass that matched
the agate fairly well. I gave this piece to Tony and Judy.
It is 17" x 11".

This piece, entitled "Ariel", was kind of funny.
I used two pieces of agate, and in designing it, had a sort
of aerial or map view of the ground in mind. The first show
that where I had it, it was less than 15 minutes before the
first person walked up and said, "Cool, a skull!" I had
never seen that in the design, but obviously everyone else
did, because I heard the comment repeated several hundred
times before the piece sold. The piece is 16" x 18" and
framed in oak.

Another arch shaped panel with an agate center.
This one is approximately 9" x 18".

This is a design based on a Nez-Perce Indian
bead design. I used Bullseye and Spectrum glass. The
Bullseye really matched the agate well. This panel is 16" in
diameter.
