This is my version of Botticelli's "Mary". It is 6 1/2 by 9 inches I can't remember how many times it was painted and fired before it was finished. Frances says it looks like a sepia photograph that was colored. I guess thats good. I don't know what I'm going to do with my collection of painted glass, but I can't stop!
I came across your blog through a link on your daughter's blog. (I really enjoy reading blogs about living in Japan.) I want to tell you how much I love your "Botticelli's Mary." She is gorgeous! I didn't realize that it was still possible to create stained glass art like that. I actually thought that the technique was lost. Anyway, I hope that you do more painted pieces. I would love to see them. Cheers!
