This is the first piece of stained glass that I ever made, back in 2001. It’s pretty rough around the edges…it’s almost round….but I keep it hanging in my studio as a reminder of where I started. This piece isn’t the first thing I ever created using colored glass, however. That honour goes to this piece:
I originally got into glass because I had an idea that I could create mosaics using glass and plaster. That idea didn’t work at all for a number of reasons and it was another year or so before I took the stained glass class where I made the first piece.
How about you? Do you still have any of your first art pieces?
