Regal Cross

I love creating cross designs. I often dream up ones that I wish were stain glass works. Having clumsy hands, not a good idea for me to try to work on them now. Still, I can create them on my computer using photo and art software and my paints/photos. I can manipulate them into designs. There is a cool software for stain glass called, "Glass EYe" if anyone is interested in it. I tried it on a free trail and it is really cool. It would allow you to design, fill in the design with stain glass pieces , even chose the lead or copper foil to piece it together. You get a realistic result of what your design would look like finished. This work was not done using it, but some of you might like seeing it.

Nice symetry!

Artist Reply: Thanks Stanley! Most of these are done symmetrical, but I will sometimes create a work with subtle differences.

Beautiful design!

Artist Reply: Thanks John!!! I really love working on these designs. I know how to get certain results exactly when working on them, but sometimes get unexpected results that keep me wanting to do more.

Lovely usage of jade and gold. This is a marvelous image and again you can feel your spirit in this work. Michael

Artist Reply: Thanks Miguel so much! I love the design in this one. Planning some new works with some new elements in the future. Figuring out how to do them the way I want will take me some practice.
