I am a self-taught stained glass artist living in Columbia, South Carolina. I am an environmental engineer by profession and have been working with stained glass for about 5 years. My grandpa was a stained glass artist so I grew up as a kid with an interest in the medium. He passed away many years ago, before I started making stained glass myself, but I view what I do in many ways as carrying on his legacy. I have participated in a few local art markets/craft fairs, but this is my first time submitting my work for any kind of competition or judging.
What I appreciate most about creating stained glass is the ability to take a medium that is typically thought of as grand and exclusive to imposing spaces and bring it to a more personal scale. I think a stained glass window or wall hanging is a way to capture that grandeur and bring it to a more humble or mundane space where you live.
