Floral Delight

Another small floral window!

Commission Bathroom Window

Commission window that was installed in a shower enclosure.  This was a remodel project and the window needed privacy.  We framed the piece in aluminum like a shower door.  The bathroom tile work is terra cotta and natural colors so the client wanted mostly warm colors.  The afternoon sun hits this window so the effect will be a Hill County sunset!

Sundown at the Lake

This is a new large window that will be shown at Artisans in Fredericksburg, Texas. It measures 24 inches wide by 36 inches tall. It was made using stained glass, vintage rhinestones, vitreous glass tiles, glass cabachons, and glass beads. This is a return to the familiar landscape windows that I have created in the past but I have used a border this time and incorporated many more glass beads that add to the detail.

Sunny Texas Afternoon

Here is a new glass on glass mosaic window that measures 24" x 24". It was created using stained glass, salvaged glass jewels, vintage rhinestones, and several sizes glass beads. There are additional layers of blossoms on the yuccas that make them stand out from the surface. This window will be on display at Artisans in Fredericksburg, Texas later this month.

Dickof Window Installation

We installed this window over the weekend. Photos show the installation being done, what other areas of the room look like, and finally how the piece displays (from both the entry of the home and in the wine room) in the normal lighting conditions for the room.

Dickof Commission Window

This window is framed in rough cedar and measures 22 inches tall by 55 inches wide. It will be installed in a transom opening between a living space and a wine room. The clients wanted the image in the center to depict the Texas flag and they wanted a vineyard scene on either side. They had lived in Austraila for several years so the vineyard scenes were taken from Austrailian photos of vineyards. All three circles are surrounded by grapevines. There is a lot of detail in this piece with the use of stained glass, vintage rhinestones, pearl tiles, and glass beads. I included the one photo of the window resting on the cement drive to show the reflections cast with light through the image.

Graham windows installed

The windows are finally installed. They will have a carpenter build in molding around them on the top and sides. My only regret is how much the dividers in the original windows detract from the image.

Graham Windows

I have finally finished this commission - it's been quite a job but I am pleased with the results. The two windows measure 33 inches wide by 43 inches tall each. They are a continuing scene that will be installed above a bathroom garden tub. The left window has two doves in the tree and the right one has a robin on the ground and a bluebird in the tree. The lake appears in both windows. The border includes mother of pearl tiles, beige moonstones, and beads. The image area is made with stained glass, vintage rhinestones, polished rocks, glass beads, etc. My first three photos are of details and the last two photos show the complete windows. I will try to post photos of these windows once they are installed.

Window to the Vineyard I

This is a multilayer minature that measures about 9 1/2 " x 11". The front layer has the mosaic border. The second layer contains the marble walls surrounding the window and the image seen through the window. The green fields are additional stained glass applied to the back surface. One of the photos is shot at an angle in an attempt to show the dimension.
