I created these two side lights for the home of a White Hall, Virginia, couple who owned a beautiful vineyard in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Another beveling technique I developed around that time was to bevel steep, short bevels to give the illusion of ice on vines. As one moves around the room, some bevels begin to reflect light while others fade away.
I consider this style to be my kinetic art.
All of the pieces of glass are held together by solder sculpturing the vines. I darkened the solder with copper sulfate to bring out the sparkle created by the bevels.
