Green Bottoms
with Lavender Border Window
The Green Bottoms with Lavender Border window is part of the “Houseware Graveyard Series” windows whose primary glass is rescued from the mundane life of serving bowls, platters, goblets, lids, jars and other general household items. The “found objects” used in this series provide a unique field of textures far beyond what is commercially available for stained glass use. The texture of a piece of glass bends light depending on its irregular or cut surface. Assembling the variety of these surfaces creates a jewel-like symphony of textural movement. The limited availability of these types of objects makes each window unique and a one of a kind work of art. This particular window is comprised of a variety of highly textured serving plates, wine bottle bottoms, stemware bottoms and faceted stained glass jewels. The background is made from an assortment of textured hand-blown glass and the border is composed of several different patterns of pale lavender “Depression Glass” serving platters.

Jumble windows have a long and rich history dating after The Reformation, and then later post WWI and WWII when many beautiful stained glass windows were severely damaged and the remnants collected and later reassembled as a mosaic. My take on a Jumble window uses pieces that were left from restoration projects and combined from sample pieces and experiments from my own new commission works and some found glass objects. This Jumble features Dr. Kilmer, John Paul Jones, Batman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Jerry Garcia, a Celtic couple toasting, Einstein, Poe and John F. Kennedy. It comes ready for hanging in a lead frame.

The Ruby Fish Tet window was created by using a combination of traditional stained glass and found object glass for the fish and the coral reef. The found objects used are serving platters, flattened bowls, and snack plates. The "Tet" in the title refers to a tetradict color formulae, which utilizes four colors to compliment the central red fish.
The Ornamental Deco windows are composed of prismatic glasses that, when set in a sunny window, project bands of light and unique spectrum rainbow patterns from colored prismatic jewels. The clear ribbed glass in the background is patterned after the Luxfer Prismatic Glass invented by Frank Lloyd Wright to create diffuse bands of light. When set in any environmental orientation the glass will capture the color and movement of anything outside the window. The windows can be set in either a horizontal or vertical orientation and are installed in wood frames suitable for hanging or installation in an architectural opening.

Murrini Garden
The Murrini Garden is the first of its type in the history of stained glass. Murrini, typically used to create beautiful bowls and vases, are decorative bits of glass that are heated and melted together to create a pancake of glass that can then be formed into a bubble and blown into a vessel, or in its miniature form to create millefiori paperweights. The hand blown roundels in the window are composed of murrini, cane flowers and chunks of colored glass. Larger flowers are created using a “wrap and rake” technique often seen in Tiffany favrile vases. Filling the space between the roundels are hand blown “antique” style glass and faceted jewels from Germany, and cane flowers. The design was inspired by Victorian architectural drawings of palatial gardens. The Murrini Roundel series are completely unique in the world of stained glass. Set in wood frame suitable for hanging or installed in architectural opening.

Murrini Garden Two
Murrini Garden Two is the next evolution of the use of murrini roundels in creating a stained glass window. The roundels are highly complex and experimental using colors that melt at varying temperatures that create an exciting variety of optical movement. The effect is very impressionistic and creates a symphony of textural movement. The Murrini Roundel series are completely unique in the world of stained glass. The window is set in a wood frame suitable for hanging or installed in an architectural opening.

Baluch Rug
The Baluch Rug window was created to capture the spirit of fiber arts/rugs in glass and to push into new territories of complexity. This window is a literal translation of a handmade Baluch Persian rug, whose hallmark is typically small rugs with whimsy, bright unexpected colors and lively playful patterns. All glass used is flashed glass (a thin veneer of color on top of a clear glass). The flower patterns in the center were originally solid colored glass; all color except the piping pattern that defines the flower lines was etched leaving the clear glass beneath. The flowers themselves were further rendered using colored glass paints and stains. Calligraphy pens were used to painstakingly pixelate the extremely detailed line pattern during the design process while the weave pattern was etched into the back of the glass, with glass paint pushed into the etching. The edge was purposely left "soft" and undulating like a rug would be. The resulting exquisite glass “duplicate” of this rug carries every minute detail and all the vibrant colors of the original rug but has the added bonus of being “backlit” by sunlight making the details, design and colors even more beautiful.

Amber Roundels
The Amber Roundels window was constructed from small jewels and hand-blown roundels. The two smallest roundels and all jewels were hand-made in Germany and I created the remaining hand-blown roundels at Avon Place Glass in Cambridge MA. Knowing that I could create more unique custom roundels than are commercially available is what motivated me to start blowing glass. The color range of amber, aurora and red highlight the textural movement within the roundels, especially in the large 11” roundel in the upper central area.

Tribute to PB&J
featuring the Mr. Peanut Chorus Line
The inspiration for the Tribute to PB&J featuring the Mr. Peanut Chorus Line window is rooted in the iconographic status of both Mr. Peanut® and everyone’s favorite childhood sandwich, the peanut butter and jelly. At first glance the window appears to be a pleasing design featuring grapes and leaves on a field of clear textured glass. Closer examination reveals the angled Mr. Peanuts® seemingly dancing in celebration lorded over by the exquisite (ashtray bottom) Mr. Peanut® at the top of the window.
