Glass ornaments for end of season 2005

(Stained Glass Artwork)

Glass ornaments for end of season 2005 Somehow I always get caught without enough glass when it comes time for holiday craft fairs.. and by always I mean the past two fairs I've done. A couple of friends and myself participated in the Plowshares Peace Festival put on by the Syracuse Peace Council. I had planned to have a whole lot more leaves, once again I'll say "next year.." We didn't do really well but we did passably, and we had a lot of fun. The leaves were drawn from pressed leaves I collected this season, the snowflakes were drawn from photos of the real thing.

Acid etched snowflakes made with hand cut patterns and a technique resulting from weeks of half-etched 'melted' looking snowflakes.

Veins are formed with copper wire, leaves range in size but are true to life specimens.

Hello, my name is Byron Norelius, and I've been working with stained glass for about 8 years. I am currently taking a long break from academic pursuits in conservation and environmental biology to attempt a simpler existence.. which I'm hoping to use my talents with glass to at least partially finance. My background in the natural sciences has greatly influenced my style and subject matter, both of which are semi-reminiscent of the art nouveau movement with its use of natural motifs and curving lines. Comments, questions, and commission inquiries are welcome and appreciated. Thanks, and enjoy.
