Not at this time. I’m a stay-at-home-Mom, and my studio time is limited to the hours my daughter is in school. For now, I’m putting that precious time toward making new work.
-
I sell a small selection of patterns, but most of my designs are not available for purchase. My original designs are my intellectual property, and I’m intentional about keeping them exclusive to my artwork rather than making them available for reproduction.
-
I’m always happy to talk about the art, inspiration, and ideas behind my work, but I don’t share detailed instructions for recreating my designs. A lot of time, experimentation, and skill has gone into developing the way I work, and I consider that part of my creative practice.

I have experience working on smaller stained glass windows and am interested in taking on more architectural work as opportunities arise. If you have a window project in mind, you’re welcome to reach out through my Custom page.

Yes! In fact, this is how I prefer commission work to develop. Sometimes I get requests for commissions that are really outside of my style, and I usually say no to those. If you have an idea that is based off of something I have already done, or very similar, that’s a really good indication that I would be interested in taking on the project.

Usually, yes! Occasionally a piece is one-of-one (especially if it is a commissioned work), but many of my designs can be recreated.

Yes, yes, and yes! Glass is so magical because we can really create something so unique by just tweaking the color palette of an existing design. This is my favorite way to do custom work: taking one of my existing designs and making it fit in your home with the color palette of your choice. If you’re ready to get started with that, head over to my Custom page.

It depends entirely on the design, size, number of pieces, type of glass involved, and building method. A piece can take anywhere from several hours to many days of studio work. There is considerably more happening behind the scenes than the finished piece might suggest.
