Sun and Moon

This is a panel about 450x450mm that sits on a landing,theres a lot of clear glass in it as it was the only light into that space and i wanted to keep as much of it as possible.The top section is a piece of dark blue flashed glass that i sandblasted a moon and some stars into.It reflects onto a white wall on the side with some nice effects.See similar at www.lustrousglass.com

Encounter

This is a panel i made for a friend.It was done in a freehand kind of way.There arnt very many pieces in it so i was able to concentrate on getting it flowing in the right way.Its mostly done in Kokomo glass with a little bit of Lamberts glass for the flower head,the one that looks like tutti-frutti with blobs of red yellow and blue.See more at Lustrousglass.com

Fish views

These fish pieces are a selection i made for the experience and to try to do something i would be happy putting in a panel.I'd like to do a panel that has lots of fish in it that looks like a view through a tropical fish-tank,as good as the real thing though with less maintenance!

Sunburst at the Lantern Centre

This is my latest set of panels, a 26 panel set around three sides of the raised roof of the meeting room in the Lantern Centre,a multicultural meeting place which aims to bridge current cultural and religious differences in the world. The room is used for meetings,theatre ,cinema screenings,poetry readings,in fact all kinds of creative comings together. The panels took about 7 weeks give or take.they measure 875mm by 500mm.Luckily all the windows were the same. The glass is different kinds,Cathedral,Baroque,Kokomo,flat,rippled.Even some bits of super expensive art glass.The room faces west so the sun sets right through the end four panels.It throws coloured reflections all over the end wall in the evening and onto the side wall during the day ,effective on the pale walls.You can view more work at Lustrousglass.com.
