My latest artistic obsession- stained glass!




I have been wanting to learn how to do stained glass for many years, and last August I finally signed up for a class. It has now become a new obsession- I only work on my projects once a week, so they can take a while to complete, but I enjoy every minute! I like to draw my own design/pattern, or sometimes, use my watercolors as a pattern. I have always enjoyed soldering, so this is a way for me to combine my interests. My latest project is a large sea horse window. I am in the process of putting the copper foil around the edges of the pieces, and then will be able to start soldering!
