Cynthe

My first attempt at fusing a large piece and incorporating it into a stained glass panel. Also my first attempt at decorative soldering and twisted wire frame. It was a birthday gift for my 86 year old mother Cynthe, who now has to live in a memory care facility due to her health.  She has trouble remembering which room door is hers so I designed this piece to hang just outside her door as a marker for her. She bred, raised and showed labs for many years and loves dogs so much. Blue is her favorite color also.
