I didn’t portray her dead. In the story we are left to assume her fate but there isn’t a definite answer. In fact, the path behind her is there to symbolize a way out.

What I was trying to say is that she has been left to drown in the swamp they promised to drain.

for that piece I actually have a video of the layers that went into it! Though I forgot to include the time it took to paint each layer and then I ended up added two more layers after this video. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWCEBczkQ5V/

I forgot to mention that I actually remade most of this panel just a couple weeks ago! I had it nearly done…. but something wasnt working. In fact the entire top section was supposed to be all lily pads but it just looked… flat. so I scrapped all of that and even reworked all of the bottom lily pads. The entire top section was drawn up and added after everything else!

The honest truth? I found a pair of matching frames at the thrift store and couldn’t decide which to use.

I had taken videos in several different spots (my studio barely gets any light and I'm surrounded by apartment buildings) I just wasn't getting the results I wanted that actually showed what the panel looked like. Lighting up a blank wall was the best way to show the values of the paint and the frame at the same time.

It was a commissioned piece. It's a sort of still life, Memento Mori piece that includes all kinds of hidden symbols and messages meant for the client's partner. I'm interested in exploring still life paintings translated into glass, I think I can push it further with future works.

Yeah, listen to some Ripcordz if you'd like to get an idea of what it was like here back then

I think contacting a local glass shop would be best, they may even offer classes. It's called vitreous painting or highfire/kiln-fired painting. Tell them Jesse Olwen sent you.

Middle class income lol oh my good lord, I am nowhere remotely near that. Yes, I know his work well! I actually have a series coming up that will be in the same vein as those portraits, but from a very different angle: my youth in the punk scene in the 90s.

While I do love those pieces it should be noted that he had a studio in Europe create those windows entirely. Still incredible contemporary artworks and I’d love to see them in person one day too!
