Sense of Residence, Four Seasons Hotel, San Francisco. Carved glass interlaced panels. 14 foot dia. by one foot deep. Kindred twins terminate each end of the 60' gold leaf barrel vault. Fiber optic lighting angled to each panel edge. Luminous etched glass visualizes the harmonies of naturally occurring geometric harmony.

Sculptural glass half-rounds terminating both ends of a gold-leaf 60-foot barrel vault. Four Seasons Hotel, San Francisco. Main lobby. After installation, and with the mechanical lifts still in the lobby, this image shows my hand. Was seeing the palm lit with diffused light.

Project Q. Bel Air. Typical build for setting the 116 linear feet of glass balustrades along the entry bridge, two rotundas, and helical stairway.

Project Q, Jones Residence. One-hundred sixteen linear feet along the handrails. Surrounding two interior rotundas, one helical stairway, and across the entry bridge. Though appearing in a Netflix documentary and private promotional materials of the client with well know individuals, the interior views of the work installed is not shown here. Project scope included a gestural wine cellar entry door panel from a new painting at the suggestion of the client as etched glass. Also, work included two bath windows with layered Japanese maple leaves.

Project Q. Approved carved glass sample panel. Typical of the 116 linear feet installed. Each square inch unique. Responding to the imagined traffic, gravity up along the helical stair, wind twirling around each rotunda and rushing in at the entry across the bridge. At feet away from his piano, a distinctly lyrical duration.

Como Contemplar, St. Ignatius Church, San Francisco University. Commission scope included the heavy glass door, transom panel, and two 11" tall cast bronze pulls.

Aria, Entry Lobby Glass, 2 Lincoln Square, New York City. Elegant gesture single tree with vibrant leaves, as if lit through by the sun. Suggesting calm beneath the covering canopy. Echoing a silver leaf maple in nearby Central Park. Single eleven-foot tall glass panel. Layers include, from closest, silkscreened leaves over fired to the full-area ultraclear structural layer. Seeing through to the stair-side, fine mouth-blown Lamberts Flash glass is silicone laminated to the full-opening structural layer. The Flash glass is richly colored, with leaves carved carved through to the white glass core. Leaves finer details are from laser etch pattern. Within the etching, hand painted details are kiln fired.
