I make stained glass panels and mount them on locally found wood and gourds
Hard shelled gourds are grown on our farm and must be one of the most sustainable bases for art and crafts. I use them in a variety of art works including Thunder Gourds which are unique musical vegetables, hanging plant holders, and also combined with stained glass to form lamps and lanterns lit by LEDs.
I make stained glass panels and mount them on locally found wood. Stained glass portraits are a more recent venture and these include family members as well as celebrities and animals. I also back light these panels so they can be used as wall lights or hung as bright pictures.
