Winter of 2002/2003, Work in Progress
Materials used: various types of sheet glass and two large glass cabs, copper foil & solder. copper sheet metal, copper electrical wire, and copper plumbing pipe.
Time involved so far: A lot, though I kept no record. Worked on this off and on from December 2002 to September 2004.
Another of my original patterns, the glass work is loosely based on some Edwardian and Victorian stained glass designs. The copperwork around the edges was no part of my original plan, but I could not decide what type of glass to use for the border. I decided to use sheets of copper to fit in the areas of the border, and do more with ivy made of twisted 16 gauge electrical wire and leaves that were once copper plumbing pipe. This panel was made to fit a cabinet window above my mothers kitchen sink. |
