Online Storefront, now up and running!

 I have been working on an online storefront and am excited to say it is up and running!  I still have to do a few minor details but prints and originals are ready to be purchased and displayed in your home and / or office!

The site is Isaacdsmith1.com

I have been following Art Storefronts for a few years and am finally able to set up this avenue for my work to not only be displayed but purchased and be enjoyed by those who want to Nourish their Soul Through a Symphony of Light and Colour!

A fun feature is that once you choose a painting you can have a scene set up such as an office, a living room, a bedroom and the image will be shown to scale in the room.  You can change things such as wall color, items in the space, etc.  It really is fun to explore and have a much better visual of where it could be displayed.

I will be adding on more artwork as the weeks progress.  I look forward to hearing what you think of the store and helping you Nourish Your Soul through my artwork.

Long Distance Project

 I have been working on a project for a client that is in Wenatchee, WA and I am Vancouver, WA area. The process for long distance is slightly different as I have to take pictures and send to the client and vice versa.  

This started out by the client contacting me and sending me pictures of the entryway and what windows they wanted stained glass.  


I requested dimensions and gave them a price range which they then let me know what their budget is and a design they really liked on my website.  I collected a deposit to begin working on the design process. Once completed I took a picture of the design and sent it to them via email so they can see it on a larger screen than their phone.


 I mailed samples of the different glass to them so they can see what the glass looks like in the space.  I do this with every client because the glass will look different in the space it is going into compared to just holding it up or taking a picture of it.  They chose the colors and clear textures they like the best and sent a deposit to order supplies and begin the fabrication process.

I have been working on one of the sidelights, creating the clear bevels and piecing it all together. 








Once the panels are completed I will be delivering and installing them into the sidelights.  Not all projects are to the scale where I can afford to do the install.  I sometimes just ship it and the client is able to install or have someone help them.  

I will post more images and the progression as I go along.
