Throughout the fabrication of the Hummingbird stained glass panel I am working on I have been doing a "spot" solder in different sections to hold areas together so I can keep piecing it together. I am now in the process of doing the "finished" solder and wanted to show the difference. I am explaining this because in pictures of the process there are images of the "spot" solder and I did not want you to think this was a finished solder joint.
The solder joint circled in yellow is the "spot" solder and the one circled in green is the finished solder joint.
The purpose of my art is to nourish your soul through the enrichment of your surroundings with the use of customized and intentioned light, color and movement. This is achieved by creating custom stained glass windows and oil paintings.

Hummingbird Glass Pieced Together
Here is the panel all pieced together. Next is to add the zinc came around the exterior, solder all joints both front and back, putty both front and back and lastly cleaning after setting for a week.
I will post image of this panel once it is completed.

Hummingbird Window Continued Process
I have been having a lot of fun creating different beveled pieces throughout this hummingbird design to give a lot of depth, dimension and movement.
The following images show before and after beveling a piece as well as how far along I am on the panel.
I even beveled the small eyes of each hummingbird to give more light play and depth instead of a flat piece of glass.
The solder that is on the joints is only a spot solder to hold things together as I progress on the panel. I will be doing the actual soldering after it is all assembled.
