This is my Comfort Castle - Pemberley

The thing about stained glass is that influencers only ever show the last few steps of it.

Starting a new series I'm calling Comfort Castles where I make fused glass portraits of all of the houses in Pride and Prejudice 1995 and 2005

The poem I want to post, btw

Gloire de Dijon

By D. H. Lawrence

When she rises in the morning
I linger to watch her;
She spreads the bath-cloth underneath the window
And the sunbeams catch her
Glistening white on the shoulders,
While down her sides the mellow
Golden shadow glows as
She stoops to the sponge, and her swung breasts
Sway like full-blown yellow
Gloire de Dijon roses.

She drips herself with water, and her shoulders
Glisten as silver, they crumple up
Like wet and falling roses, and I listen
For the sluicing of their rain-dishevelled petals.
In the window full of sunlight
Concentrates her golden shadow
Fold on fold, until it glows as
Mellow as the glory roses.

I'm so down bad for this piece that I want to post poetry about it

A completed stained glass panel interpretation of The Swing by Fragonard. It depicts a woman in a pink dress swinging in a forest

Progress, little by little

I think the most important part of having a daily art practice of some kind is being willing to do even a tiny amount of a project, just so you don't get completely stuck.

Everyone say good luck to the spooky girl in the kiln!

I'm making a stained glass version of The Swing by Fragonard and I have so many thoughts about it! Read them on my substack open.substack.com/pub/touchgla...

An unfoiled stained glass panel of a woman with blonde hair in a voluminous pink dress swinging on a multicolored green background.

The Swing by Fragonard. It depicts a woman in a voluminous pink dress swinging in the forest with a footman pushing her and a noble creep looking up her skirt. It's in rococo style and very beautiful.

If you're a fan of my work, I just started a substack to help you keep up with me. I'm excited to do more long form explanations of what I'm up to.

No one panic but I drew a pretty good bird

Inspired by medieval marginalia, how I love this piece

A stained glass piece in the shape of a cathedral window. It depicts a tree with 4 penises on it and a basket sitting nearby full of more penises. The piece is hanging in a window

Medieval marginalia of a nun picking penises from a tree and putting them in a basket.

The emotional difference between someone going through 5 years of your media tab and liking every single one of your selfies and every single one of your pieces of art is so different. The former is kinda 🤢 but the latter makes me feel like i have found a kindred spirit of equally bizarre taste
