Pausing to catch up
I am not taking new work at this time. I am dedicated to completing projects I have already taken on.
I expect to begin new projects in the later part of July.
You can still contact me, and July will be here soon enough.
For lamp repair involving curved glass panels, I especially recommend Curren Glass in Illinoiss and Len Daley in Rhode Island, and I have a longer list of folks who have done some such repair work. If you have a copper foil (often called Tiffany style) lamp to be repaired, check your area for someone with the skills. A good place to inquire is your nearest stained glass store that sells supplies.
Stained Glass Panels For Sale
I have a limited number of items for sale.
I don’t have a proper online store for purchasing, but contact me using the form below and we can set up a purchase and, if needed, arrange shipping.
If you’re looking for a gift and don’t see anything here that interests you, I recommend my friend and neighbor Chris Paulson’s glass work.
Besides his website, Chris has a showroom a few doors from me at 1164 West 2nd Avenue in Eugene. There he offers his regular items and more at prices that are a great value.
You can call Chris at 541 556 8094.
Especially notable among his many return customers is Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor!
Framing
My typical frames are made from aluminum which I treat to have a pewter-like finish, and hangers are included. I usually use s-hooks, though these can be removed quite easily if one wants to use the hangers only.
See the example below.
I have also written a short guide to hanging a stained glass panel.

Color and Line Study
20-1/4" wide x 22-1/4" tall (framed)
$100 Sale PriceThis study was done for a client who wanted a rather dark panel to cut the sunlight that fell on a wall of paintings. The deep but colorful pieces were painted with fired-on paints.
These colors cast nicely onto surrounding surfaces when the glass is directly illuminated by the sun.
That’s all I have for now!
