FIELDS OF DREAMS

0 loves
Description:

FIELD OF DREAMS by Debra Seney took two and a half years to complete.  It measures 58 1/2" x 34 1/2" and consists of many small pieces of stained glass.  With limited light, the center was left open with clear, textured, irredescent glass to allow more light into the interior of the living room.  Much of the light is blocked by a neighbor's close wall.

This is an absolutely stunning piece of work! Perhaps an exterior spotlight could be used to make up for the lack of natural light? Congratulations on your skill and your patience. beachbatty

Thanks amby and nwbrooks! If you happen to look through a brown bottle in the best light - it can be beautiful, (my husband keeps me supplied-ha), but if not in direct best light - not so pretty. That's what I am faced with my neighbors house being so close to mine. Colors I would have loved to have used go dead with this loss of light. I made the window in such a way that if a relative who inherits it wants it - can remove the window and hopefully some day it will be against the correct source of light. As the light shifts during the day - there are moments of sections that just bounce. Thanks again!!!! P.S. I am going to use beer bottles and wine bottles for a matching window and fused glass with some depth. Should be fun. Another 2 1/2 years of work!

I love it, yes, a lot of work. Can you imagine back lighting it? I bet with more light it would show it off more. Very beautiful!
