Wind's
Eye Gallery
Kenneth F. vonRoenn Jr.'s training as an architect has
deeply influenced his design work in stained glass. The
integration, interaction and relationship of texture,
color and light with the building environment are of
paramount importance. Many of vonRoenn's projects
possess the serenity, grace and monumental quality of
the great Medieval grisaille windows, while the visual
language is thoroughly modern. |

work of Yvonne Williams. She started her stained glass
studio in the "dirty thirties", and built it
up into a successful and highly respected enterprise,
which created beautiful and artistically innovative
windows, and fostered the development of a generation of
glass artists. This took courage, tenacity, and an
inexhaustible energy, but Williams had these in great
measure. |
