I have been a window maker for 40 years. My specialty was designing beveled glass windows and architectural stained glass. Ten years ago I started to explore fused glass and have developed a technique working in glass powders to make my newest work. My fused glass Botanicals have a dimensional surface. I create individual plant parts with the glass powders and apply them to my base glass, using embellishments of frit for special details. After multiple firings, I then create borders of beveled and stained glass to complete the window.
