Book sucks!!!!

Book is a COFFEE TABLE BOOK NO INSPIRATION AT ALL NO SOURCE OF ANYTHING!!!!

Beautiful

This book is absolutely gorgeous, and it is truly an inspiration to artists in any media, not only in stained glass. The projects are a little ambitious for beginners and hobbyists like me, but the beautiful photographs and ideas give me something to aspire to. An invaluable tool.

terrific photos

Definitely worth getting. This is a book that you will find yourself going back to over and over again. Plenty of fresh and interesting ideas.

Loved it

I borrowed this book from the library, and now I'm just going to have to buy it. I'm just getting started in stained glass and I must say the work featured in this book is truly inspirational. Buy it and you will look at it over and over again.

A most inspirational stained glass design book

I highly recommend this book for a stained glass artist or anyone seeking to commission a stained glass piece for their home. The glass is painted, etched, & blown to create many stunning & unique effects.Design themes include marine life, birds, animals, people, floral, religious & abstract. The book is filled with gorgeous color photos with captions for each window listing title, artist, size, & the glass types used.I fell in love with a screen entitled "Waves" & one featuring sandblasted water nymphs. I also enjoyed another circular piece featuring the tree of life & flame. A huge abstract biblical window took my breath away.There is a very helpful list of artists in the back. Contact information, pages their artwork is on & the kind of work they do is listed here. I find myself constantly looking to this book for inspiration & ideas.
