A couple of weekends ago I was in Austin and had the opportunity to stop by Helios Glass Studio and take a look around. They had a great selection of glass and supplies and the atmosphere was very laid back and nice. I wouldn't mind going back up to Austin for there open studio! Since I didn't really need any fusing supplies, I went right next door to Artisan Stained Glass and they had the most beautiful colors of glass! After much debate I picked out a couple of sheets of glass for the birds in my stained glass window and the gentleman that was there cut the glass to the size I needed. I was very pleased with my selection and couldn't wait to see what my birds were going to look like with the combination of colors I selected. I think that's the funnest part, picking out colors of glass!
I finally got around and did some work on the stained glass window. I finished all the clear background over the past few weekends and today I finished cutting three of the six birds. I still need to define the feathers, and put eyes on them. At least I'm working on it!
It's looking great. Can't wait to see the birds with the light behind them!
