Glass-on-Glass Mosaic
A great solution for windows and glass areas when both light and privacy are desired.

I often see windows in businesses that are covered either by a dusty curtain, paper taped to one side, or sticky contact paper that usually has bubbles and is peeling on the edges. Many of these businesses are clinics that wish to obscure the clear glass in order to create privacy for visitors. I have also been in hotel rooms and restaurants with bathroom windows that face into a courtyard or street where a passerby could easily peek in, which is unsettling. A creative fix for these windows is glass-on-glass mosaic. The mosaic can be done directly onto the window, onto a pane (in the studio) which is later secured into place and can be removed at a later time, or onto another framed window that is suspended in front of the existing window (can be removed and replaced at any time.)
This mosaic was done onto a large, reclaimed window and was installed in a home, suspended in an existing window.
This glass-on-glass mosaic was commissioned for a tattoo shop window. The shop owner and artist, Marco Hernandez, designed the motif in keeping with vintage tattoo designs.
The Federal Way Senior Center commissioned this glass-on-glass panel to incorporate into a new sign for the Center.
This simple mosaic was done onto a reclaimed window and sold for hanging in an existing window (or from a porch.)
A restaurant in Olympia, WA had two empty windows between the dining area and kitchen. This is one of two glass-on-glass panels created to provide a barrier between diners and the bustle of the kitchen. This was done in 2008, and while I still love the design, my andamento was still a bit rudimentary.
