Duke The Beloved Bulldog
World meet Duke. Duke meet the world. This charming little bulldog was my first pet portrait. This 13.5"x17.5" panel is constructed in the Tiffany copper foil method and framed in sturdy zinc framing material. Strong hanging hardware has been soldered into the frame and as usual, chains and hooks have been included for hanging. The first step in the process was determining a size for the panel. Duke's owner took a good look around his house and decided in which window he wanted the panel to hang. That helped determine the size. Duke's distinct markings allowed for a very distinct pattern. All of the focus is on Duke with the background serving primarily to highlight the glass chosen. There are more than seven different types of glass used on Duke alone, plus the glass for the collar and the background. Though difficult to see, the glint in Duke's eyes and his name on his name tag have both been hand painted on and fired for permanence. I just love Duke's little underbite! Please ask me about designing a pet panel for you.

Whether you are looking for something to brighten up a window or upgrade your kitchen cabinets, stained glass should appeal not only to your sense of aesthetic, but should ignite your imagination. I'll have done my job right when my glass sings to you.
You may choose from one of my pre-designed panels or I can create something just for you and for your space. All pieces are created using the Tiffany copper foil method and, when appropriate, are framed in a rigid, metal frame with sturdy hangers built in to each piece. Wood framing is also available upon request. As a special thank you, I also include hooks and chain so that you'll have everything you need to display your art.

Jun 25, 2017There is nothing bad to write about this project. It was exactly as described from emails and photographs. We made a couple last minute changes and she was very flexible. I relied on her expert opinion but she also took my request seriously. Some vendors don't listen to the customer OR listen only to them and rhats when you get bad results. Well definitely not in this case. I couldn't be more happier with a custom made piece of stain glass for my wife on our 3 year weddin anniversary. Thank you so much!
