Been a while

Wow has it. The world has changed. I have changed. We have all Grown. Hopefully for the better. I am home for a while maybe I will get back to my glass. Maybe I will study. UMMMMM maybe no maybe there......

Got a new job with Baptist Medical Center in Jackson MS. It is beautiful! I love to come early and just enjoy the roses and honeysuckle on the morning breeze. I talked to other traveling workers before I accepted this assignment and have heard nothing but positives! One Nurse said "I would pay to go back there".

My son is getting married in June. I have been in Mississippi for over a year now. My Father is better and he is still capable of driving my Mother nutz! Another positive (depending on who's side you see it from). Well gotta go finish moving back in from the work days. Take care Ya'LL

Box with a shell top.

It has been a while.

I have some new glass done. I have moved, divorced, and most of the kids moved out. No one wanted to come to mississippi... go figure. This coffin box is for the grand daughter of a friend with a litttle beade skeleton inside the lid. He has red bead eyes. the top of the box is edged in hematite for a look that will last a little longer.

Wow what a ride!

Dad's cancer is almost finished two more chemo treatments to go. My son goes into the army on the 12th of November. And I actually got some glass done.

This is a news letter with information and pictures of medevil stained glass. This month is a panel from Edinburgh.

Vidimus, the only on-line magazine devoted to medieval stained glass. Vidimus appears monthly and subscription is free.
We want to share our enthusiasm for this unique art by bringing readers news, and reporting on exhibitions, events, books and websites. Every month brings an exclusive feature article, and each edition also includes a detailed examination of a single panel of glass, our Panel of the Month. As a group, these panels will provide insights into all sorts of stained-glass issues, and will constitute an invaluable teaching and learning resource. We also aim to promote the work of the CVMA (GB), Great Britain’s national survey of medieval stained glass, and to introduce readers to the vast on-line Picture Archive, also accessible via its website. The CVMA (GB) website is full of information on the organization’s activities, as well as general and technical information on stained glass - and access is free.

Vidimus for a thirteen-light window of the Crucifixion and Resurrection. The inclusion of St William of York in the scene suggests that this pen and wash design may have made for Cardinal Wolsey, Tudor statesman and Archbishop of York (1514-30). The annotations have been attributed to the glazier James Nicholson and the vidimus dated to c.1525-26.
