  4. Thanks Kathy. I really had to work at the composition on this one. I knew what I wanted to see as far as overlapping and negative spaces, but the glass pieces just wouldn't sit right. After several bottles being whacked with my hammer, I finally got a couple of pieces that cooperated.

  8. Todd,

    The piece is tremendous. Everyone that walks into to the house thinks it is a photograph. I have had the pleasure of sharing the pieces you did with several people who have been anxiously awaiting their arrivals. It has been definitely worth the wait.
