Beautiful imagery, Rodrigo This is what I love about glass and as you said, it can be mesmerizing.

I wish you and my mum could've met. She was also a talented glass artist and Tiffany lamps were her specialty. Like you, she taught many people and left a beautiful legacy of lamps in the world - several of which we enjoy in our home.

The stained glass window you featured in this piece is stunning. I've always loved the combination of red and gold and especially love the ruby glass that contains gold. Some of my mum's lamps feature this glass and the red pieces are beautifully rich and warm.

I'm sorry Lawrence wasn't more generous spirited. If only he'd heard James Keller's words,

"A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle."

I'm glad you persevered anyway and left your own legacy of light and beautiful "beams of color" in the world. Keep shining. 😊
