Leadlight Heron

Fanciest local I know.

A white heron in the garden of a Mediterranean Revival waterfront mansion - shell fountain, palms, sailboat beyond - rendered in stained-glass panels. Mosaic / stained-glass.

The Story

Mediterranean Revival gardens on the island shore include shell fountains, leaded-glass windows, and formal plantings. White herons hunt the shallow edges, standing in inches of water. Stained glass follows the same logic: lead lines first, color second, water behind everything.

The Making

Rebuilt panel by panel in Illustrator - lead lines drawn first as a complete vector framework, color laid into each panel as flat glass tones and harmonized across the full palette.
Soft light glow added in Photoshop behind the panels.
The most construction-intensive piece in the set.
