stained glass artist

Colored glass designer

A stained glass artist designs and creates decorative windows and panels from colored glass pieces joined by lead strips or copper foil.

The craft combines artistic vision with technical skill—cutting glass, selecting colors, and assembling pieces into images or patterns.

Stained glass artists work on everything from church windows to contemporary art installations: She apprenticed with a stained glass artist for three years before opening her own studio.
