Robb's Transom
Robb owns a really neat townhouse in downtown DC. He has done a lot of restauration in his home and decided to add a hand-crafted stained glass transom above his entrance door.Paragraph.
Robb's Transom
Robb wanted to have hand-blown discs in his transom. He asked his friend Joe to blow the glass. Robb brought the glass discs to my studio and learned how to design and craft his own transom!
Washington Waldorf School, Bethesda, MD
As part of their art studies, the seniors of the Washington Waldorf School endeavored to put a design they originally crafted out of colored tissue paper into an actual stained glass panel. During the spring of 2008, the students learned how to cut, grind, foil and solder stained glass and they produced their very own design into a beautiful window that is now installed as part of the front entrance of the Waldorf School in Bethesda. The students gave the glass panel as a gift to the school and in memory of one of their class mates who died two years ago.
Coccosphere - microscopic marine plant
Dee Breger, Director of Microscopy, Drexel University
A scientist as well as a talented photographer, Dee Breger has created beautiful photographs of nature's most microscopical creatures. One of her ideas was to take one of her photos and craft a 3D stained glass version of it.
Dee brought a copy of the photo to me and I created the panel with stained glass and blown glass flute pieces, specially hand-blown by a local glass blower.
This is what it looks like: http://www.micrographicarts.com/glass.html

Coccosphere - in stained glass
The hand-blown glass flutes represent the many coccospheres that cluster like heaps of trumpets around the plant base. The flutes are soldered onto the stained glass background, creating a 3D glass panel.
