Dan Friday’s art is both a personal expression and a commitment to cast forward into the future the legacy of his Coast Salish people. While there are some remarkable contemporary totem carvers, Dan, an enrolled member of the Lummi tribe, enjoys working in glass because of its relative permanence.

Capturing Fragility and Strength in Glass
by Margaret Zinser Hunt

Creativity—Commissions
An Opportunity to Learn New Things
by Milon Townsend

While making commissions is by definition doing what someone else wants them to do, it’s also an opportunity to broaden their palettes of artistic ability.

Considering Ellen Mandelbaum
A Brush with a Painter of Light
by Troy Moody
Photography Elizabeth Felicella and Marilyn Ott
Most students of stained glass have encountered images of the work of Ellen Mandelbaum. Her commissioned art is easily recognizable, with its large swaths of colored antique glass washed in loose, painted movements and gestural lead lines. The artist creates quiet spaces juxtaposed against bold clusters of sweeping lines to occupy her architectural panels.
