A front door for a very nice craftsman style
house here in Austin. The pic on the left is the indoor
view, on the right is the outdoor view. A simple design, but
I think it turned out really nicely.
|
|
|
|
A replacement window for a couple who were
moving. GNA and Bevels and stuff.
|
|
|
|
The first of three pieces for a house in Harris
Branch here in Austin. Beveled Texas stars with
flemish.
|
|
|
|
The second piece, an arch-top window in the
bedroom.
|
|
|
|
The third, a sort of free-form victorian design
above the bath.
|
|
|
|
A FLW-ish front door here in Austin. See the
martini glass?
|
|
|
|
This panel for a very large pantry door was
surprisingly difficult to lead up. The design was adapted
from a tile in the kitchen. The repetitive pattern ended up
being a sort of "locking" pattern that took quite a bit of
finageling to get together. I really like the finshed
look.

|
|
|
A cabinet door based on a clear
victorian panel I had done several years ago. The colors
were chosen to match the granite in the client's
kitchen.
|
|
|
|
A sidelight and transom in fairly classic
victorian design.
|
|
|
|
A celtic cross for Things Celtic. It turned out
a little too monochrome in the picture, but in real life
there is a good contrast between the glass
colors.
|
|
|
|
This one was a Texas star bevel with bevels all
the way around the border. All the bevels except the 8
square ones had to be custom sizes. It took a couple of
tries to get the star bevels right. It is installed in a
door here in Austin.

A couple from Michigan who were remodeling their
house ordered this nice and simple victorian style beveled
piece.
|
|
|
|
These two octagon windows went into the Carl
residence here in Austin. They kept me busy for quite a
while.
|
 
|
|
|
The Carl's front door. The figure in the middle
of the door was a piece they already had. I designed a
surround and matched the design for the sidelight. There's
both an indoor and outdoor view here, but neither picture
turned out as well as I had hoped.
|
 
|
|
|
A door panel for some friends of mine whose
house burned down in 1998. They rebuilt a beautiful new home
on the lot and I put this in an 8 foot mahogany door. It's
sort of a prairie inspired design.
|
|
|
|
A piece for a front door for a guy who teaches
auto shop at a local high school here. It was designed to
match an existing window in the house that was quite old. It
was a real challenge to match some of the glass in
here.
|
|
|
|
The Haddad's window. This has to be the most
unusually sized piece I have ever done. It is over 8 feet
high, and just over 10 inches wide. A friend of mine removed
the wall heater from his older home and installed central
heat and air. the resulting hole made a nice passageway
between the office and the living room until I put this
piece in. It's a kind of unique pattern that he came up with
after looking through a few of my old pattern
books.

|
I did a series of 3 windows for the Coffman
residence here in Austin this summer. This is a door
insert.
|
|
|
|
These two hang in the Coffman's stairwell and
the bathroom. All three are basically the same design,
although the sizes range from 15 inches square to 36 inches
square.
|

|
|
This is a 20"x11" panel of a fluer-de-lis type
design which incorporates 6 rectangular bevels. The colored
glass is all GNA.
|
|
|
|
A 12"x23" panel with a beveled fluer-de-lis, and
triangular bevels above and below it. The blue and green
glass are both GNA
|
|
|
|
A larger (36"x48") Victorian installed in a
private residence in Laredo,TX. The red glass at the top of
the figure is a from a beautiful piece of hand-cast glass
that went from orange to black and from about 3/64" to 1/4"
thick!
|
|
|
|
A medium sized free-hanging panel. The design
was based on a small drawing that my wife found of a Jainist
jar. I eliminated the bulk of the body of the jar, and it
ended up looking fairly Victorian. As for my color
selection, at the first show where I took the panel, someone
came up, looked at it and said just,"Wow!
Bold!"

I did this window (and another very similar one which I
never got a good picture of) for a couple here in Austin,
TX. The purple background is a strange glass I got when I
bought another glass artist's stock out several years ago. I
have no idea who manufactured it, and I have never seen any
other glass like it (even in other colors). The window is
38" high x 22" wide, and is installed over a tub.

|
|
A victorian design using all textured clear
glass. The pattern is a variation on a fairly standard
victorian design. The piece is approx. 16" x 16" and framed
in oak.
|
|
|
|
Another fairly standard victorian design. I used
purple GNA and clear glue-chip on this 15" x 11" panel. It
was sold at Christmas several years ago to a woman who was
going to give it to a friend of hers in New
York.
