After soldering both sides of the panel, I draw the middle shape of the clear bevels and cut a couple different shades of green colored glass that will be beveled and bonded on top of the clear bevels later in the process. I do this at this stage because the next part is to putty both sides, let it set for a couple of weeks before cleaning.
Now that the panel is all pieced together, the next step is to solder the joints, both front and back.
I have been piecing together the large Northern Lights stained glass panel. Here are a few pics showing the process.
Stay tuned for more pics as the project progresses.
Thank you to all who have artwork in their homes, I am grateful for the opportunity to have added joy to your surroundings.
Thank you to those who continue following me and my work throughout the years and given words of encouragement from time to time.
Thank you to those who have believed in me.

I am working on a large stained glass panel with a Aurora Borealis feel to it. My original design had a more flowing feel to it and the client wanted something slightly different which will still look good but it is not quite what I envision. It is a fun project.
These are part of the process so far and will post more images as the panel progresses.
After completing the installation in Wenatchee of the sidelight panels and several smaller projects and repairs I am taking time to clean, reorganize my glass supply, and shop area.
The sidelights and door panels are installed! My son and I drove to Wenatchee and had a wonderful time with the clients and drove back all in one day, even though the installation went longer than planned on.
Here are a few pics of the trip and installation:
Packing up the van for the long trip to Wenatchee today. I am looking forward to seeing these panels in the site they were made for!
Here are a few images showing the process of the 2 sidelight stained glass window project for a client in Wenatchee Washington:
