![]() "Geisha With Parasol" |
Custom Stained Glass geisha that I designed for the "Ring of Fire" contest
at Delphi Stained glass. It takes a non-traditional approach to the theme incorporating ring glass in the kimono with fired on glass paints in the facial details. 2010 brings me
back to stained glass after many years of being away from this art form. I'm pushing the envelope by now creating my own designs and patterns
in addition to learning new techniques. This piece is my first time using glass paints on stained glass. |
This piece won "Most Unique" in the national Ring of Fire Contest on July 9, 2010 sponsored by
Delphi Stained Glass in Lansing, MI and ArtFire.com. My original design "Geisha With Parasol" Tiffany style piece was the only traditional soldered stained glass piece to place. It was my first time
to enter any type of an art glass contest. Thank you to the judges who have honored me with this award. ![]()
