Looking Back On 2018

Looking back on 2018 brought to mind the beautiful windows we built this past year. We built 91 windows, and with a few weeks left in the year, we may hit 100! I  have some favorites to share with you. Do you remember the months of cutting hundreds of little pink cherry blossoms? I certainly do. Every one of the four windows were more beautiful than the one before.



Then there were 6 Season windows. Summer and Winter had a double scene. The rotunda where they are displayed is a huge room where they don't look quite as big as they did on the work table.

I had such a great time arranging the glass for the mosaic we named "Argo". It was named after the ship in "Jason and the Argonauts."



What good fortune it was to work on the window "Nasturtiums in the Rain". The green modeled glass was perfectly suited for the leaves. It added an organic feel.



The Poppy window was designed  by the talented illustrator, Lynde Mott. We had the best time working on it together.



The design of the "Tree of Life" was so popular that we were able to build 4 different but similar designs.



It was a thrill to have two pieces in the Springville Art Museum. The "Tree of Life" window was accepted in the Roots and Branches show and "Feast upon the Word" was displayed in the Spiritual and Religious show.



To top off the year, the "Nativity" window was built. I especially like the way Joseph has his arm in a protective manner on Mary and the Holy mother is touching baby Jesus in the same loving manner.



We are finishing the year strong and are already gearing up for a profitable and meaningful 2019. We plan on a year of wonderful experiences including our clients and students. I hope to meet many of our followers this next year.
