"Stunning Crystal and Glass" 


 

The Book 
I was honored to have been approached by North Light Publishing to write and illustrate an instructional book on my favorite subject, painting cut crystal and glass. 

After teaching this subject for many years, I realized there is so much to share and once I began the process, the information flowed out of me. All the lessons are broken down into simple steps, taking the mystery out of how to paint what most artists think is a complex subject. 

  I invite you to join me in exploring this fascinating subject as you  will learn to see beyond the obvious. The refracted shapes, color and the light prism beaming through glass,  will give you a whole new perspective on painting. You will learn to paint above and beyond your skill level.
  Using my technique - painting dark to light, will help you become organized in approaching this subject. You will also learn to balance your values which creates eye popping images. 
It is my hope,  that you find as much joy and fascination in this subject as I do. Trust the process in the lessons of this book - "Stunning Crystal and Glass". My promise to you: once you've completed one of the paintings, you will be able to paint anything. I guarantee it.
