I created this transom for a home in Richmond, Virginia, in 1994.

All the bevel glass transoms I’ve seen in the older parts of Richmond are symmetrical.

Although this design can be considered symmetrical, I wanted to make it slightly different. I’m always looking for a way to break free of the past in a subtle but tasteful way so that my art blends with the furnishing and atmosphere of the area it will be included in.

This bevel glass transom was above an interior door. The exterior was a beautiful sunroom, so not only did it receive plenty of sunlight, but color reflected off the objects on the other side.

Like this one, I’ve left my mark in many subtle ways over my career.
