Welcome to Creative Tuesdays! This is my 'Stained Glass Window' for the current theme. It's done in acrylic on good quality (6" x 6") cardstock. It was a most interesting challenge Michael, right after doing this one, I was thinking of ideas of how I could've made it better. It had never occurred to me before to even wonder how stained glass pieces are made, it brought a new appreciation for the painstaking detail required for the most fabulous pieces. Fortunately my piece is just a painting, haha.

Beautiful piece, and love the jewel bright colours, well done. I love looking at the stained glass in the churches and some of the houses here, it is always fascinating. Have a lovely day, hugs, Valerie
Christine, there is a lovely depth to your painting and I love the earthy colours you have used which gives the whole piece a very harmonious feel. A very lovely painting!

Christine,
Great depiction. Good lines and colour.

Christine, I love the sun peeking out. You've captured the essence of stained glass beautifully. I too, found this to be a difficult challenge. Blessings to you in 2016. :-)
What a great inspiration! I love this - your painted "glass" is just beautiful. I love the sun rays too :) HAPPY NEW YEAR! xoxo
My ex-husband worked at a stained glass booth at Opryland amusement park back in the late 80s/early 90s and wow, when he described the process, I was stunned. Much more complicated than people realized. Beautiful piece!
It's lovely and very interesting to think about how stained glass pieces are composed! The trees are especially wonderful.
Beautiful painted Christine !! xoxoxo
this would be nice for a window somewhere. I particularly like the sun rays as if signals a new day to me. good take on the theme.
have a lovely day.
I think what makes it look stained glass is the wide black sections. Michael really helped me with that comment. I do love your painting, and I bet if you outlined your sections in black it would look very stained glass.
great painting
What a great painting! I can imagine that stained glass windows are a lot of work. This piece looks like it is perfect for stained glass. :)
