The request:- A window with ship, eagle, rainbow and a flash of light.........
Not the easiest picture to compose in glass.
The eagle represented her son - on his first day home from hospital he was taken for a look at the family property, mum and new born stumbled across an eagle sitting in the middle of a 4 wheel drive track and for all intents and purposes was chatting to a cow. Both cow and eagle looked at them and turned away, had a final word. The eagle took off but before he disappeared completed a slow swoop over their heads, the cow turned and wandered off to greener pastures.
Her daughter on her first day home, taken for the same walk had the sky light up with a rainbow.
I didn't ask about the ship and flash of light, but no doubt they have their own symbolic meanings.
A leadlight interpretation of Mt Olympus and the home of Greek Gods in Cypress, goats, grapes and a hand painted fused map were part of the design
This window was approx 1m x 6m, the panels were built .9 x.9 and stacked in 3's wihin two cedar frames, the original conception, design and drawing came from a magnolia tree outside. Half a dozen petals were traced then flipped, enlarged and reduced for the final plan. The result easy on the eye with lots of class.
A 1.2 x1.2 circular abstract - reinforced lead used throughout -located at the head of a board room table.
The light and dark blue Iris hexagon was placed inside a non opening stairwell window.

FANTASY
Panels that hang infront of windows.
