by Gary Iles

This stained glass painting is based on an original aboriginal picture useing clear float glass the outlines are painted in a matt black then i added the browns and yellows to give effect, the frame i made from old timber and carved it with aboriginal art.

Milly's reply:

This is great Gary! It just goes to show what you can do with float glass. You've really captured the spirit of aboriginal art. I like the fact that you haven't completely covered the glass with glass paint, but left some clear - it adds to the dreamlike atmosphere. I also love the frame. I always think how you hang or display work is of equal importance as the glass, and this really adds to it. Thanks for putting it on Everything Stained Glass.
