Easter in Texas - a glass on glass mosaic stained glass window

 

This is a new mosaic stained glass window that will be shown in Artisans Gallery in Fredericksburg, Texas.  It measures 24inches by 24 inches.  It features a Texas jack rabbit and our prickly pear cactus.  Easter in Texas looks more like this than tulips and bunnies!

Angel Window - glass on glass mosaic window

A client ordered a commission window of an angel.  I was apprehensive about attempting this since I have never depicted a human figure in my work.  As it turns out, I am happy with the results and am looking forward to trying more of this type of piece in the future.

This detail photo shows the use of many different types of glass beads and rhinestones.

 

 

Large Glass on Glass mosaic window of a parrot

This commission window was a definate challenge because it is such a departure from the usual Texas subject matter that I usually do.  It was made as a Christmas gift for a couple's home in Mexico.  It was a lot of fun to do something so different!

As you can see in this detail photo I used small seed beads to help define the image. 

Glass on glass mosaic tryptic - Texas wildflowers and birds.

This was a commission for three windows to hang side by side in openings with about four inches between the windows.

The left window contains Texas wildflowers and a male Cardinal.

 

The middle window has a continuation of the wildflowers and features a Painted Bunting and a hummingbird.

 

The right window continues the wildflower field and contains a Robin.

This shows how the windows look side by side.

 

Courting - Glass on Glass Mosaic Stained Glass Window

This window depicts a pair of cardinals - I used a little artistic license to make the female more colorful than normal.  The leaves on the tree are enhanced with the placement of green glass vintage rhinestones.  In this detail photo you can see the use of small seed beads to outline and enhance the birds.
