What Inspires Me: Stained Glass Windows

Have you ever been sitting in church and gotten lost in watching the stained glass windows? Watching how colored light dances across the floor? When asked to design paraments for a new church being built in Oklahoma, I wanted to create something that complemented that magic. The green curve seen here was traced from a photo of their windows and incorporated into each set of paraments for the altar. Each pair of altar frontlets uses the same curve but in a different orientation to create the maximum possible variations on the design theme.

In August I will celebrate six years of work as a liturgical artist. I am lucky to have found a career that allows me to fully engage the creative side of my brain. I am even luckier that I have found churches and clergy that not only share my taste in what we find beautiful, but are willing and able to invest in new items to enhance their ministries. Over the years I have been asked where my ideas come from. I thought it was time to share some of my inspiration. With this blog, I will post a picture of a finished design and talk about the genesis of the idea and the design process. I hope you will enjoy getting a deeper understanding of my work. I also hope it will be worth your time to read it!
