The stained glass quail family in the balsam flowers was designed for a young lady that gave this piece to her father. Here in the Okanagan of British Columbia where I live there are hundreds of the crazy little birds that love to run across the highways taking their chances with fate and oncoming traffic. Amazingly enough you rarely see any of them hit by passing motorists!
The church stained glass piece is my interpretation of Saint Saviour's church in historic Barkerville, British Columbia. Although a bit difficult to see in the photo, I created the fir tree forest by soldering a vast amount of cut wires onto the piece. The church was made from textured rippled brown semi-transparent glass and you can see the importance of the right choice of glass as this heavily textured rippled blue glass gives the feel of Northern lights in the sky.
The red rooster was also made as a gift for a lady that was a collector of 'rooster' things. Again I used coiled wires to create some very detailed effects on this chicken.
I have experimented with various techniques in my own work, which keeps it interested, unique and fulfills the creative urges within.
The sunflower stained glass horizontal panel is just one of those 'fun' pieces to build. I love making sunflowers. I enjoy working with yellow and red glasses as they are such bold colors. Sunflowers allow the use of yellow!

The wine bottle and grape cluster piece was built with a beveled grape cluster set.
You can purchase beveled glass and beveled glass sets from stained glass suppliers.
There are colored bevels and bevel clusters.
Window and door companies that special in stained glass entries use a lot of beveled glass in their designs.
