Yet another Niagara University Window!

This one is the Nurses Cap.  This is, of course, without light coming through.  The nurses cap is a detail of the window.  The new design is for the next window up.

My classes at St. Bonaventure University for Spring 2011 are:
Art History 2, Renaissance to Romanticism
Women in Art
Stained Glass Studio
Senior Seminar 2

My online class for Felician College in the Spring of 2011 is:

I completed another window for Niagara University.  It has been delivered for leading.
Here is a picture of it.

Today was the dedication of the window area at Niagara University.  The first two windows were installed for this and they look great.

I displayed the designs for the other windows and got some great feedback from the Niagara University Nursing Alumni.  I can proceed with more of the windows now.  There will be 12 total.

Here is a link to my designs for St. Gabriel Church in Elma, NY.  These windows were completed, with the assistance of the McHugh Studios in 2000.

Here are the three window that are being installed in the bottom section of the window area of Niagara University.  The two on top are already leaded and the one on the bottom is being leaded right now by Images in Glass, Glen Albig. The one on the top left is on the very bottom and contains the nameplate! The one on the bottom right is an example of the process beginning with the drawing.  They will be one on top of the other and will make up 9 feet in glass.  They'll be installed by Oct. 9.  Nine more windows to go!

Here is the newest progress on the Niagara University windows.
The glass is all cut and the last paint firing is cooling in the kiln tonight.
Tomorrow it will be all assembled for delivery to Images in Glass in Hamburg, NY.
There they will lead the window and prepare it for installation.

I'm in the process of creating the 35 foot tall X 20 inches wide stained glass window for Niagara University.  It has 12 panels, three to each four sections.  Above is the bottom most section which I'm cutting out and painting this coming week.  I built and assembled my new glass painting easle that is in my studio at Villa Maria Convent in Buffalo.
The window will be installed in Dunleavy Hall at Niagara U., across the way from the Castellani Gallery and Museum on campus.

For those of you who are in the NYC, and Lodi, NJ area, my sabbatical lecture will be on April 14 at 1:00-2:25 pm at Felician College in Lodi, NJ at Obal Hall Lecture Hall, 2nd Floor. The lecture is entitled: 

Stained Glass for a 19th Century Castle 

Sister Kelly's Sabbatical Work 

I hope as many of you as possible can make it!

Franciscan Federation

Here is the new design for the July Conference of the Franciscan Federation in Buffalo.

Finally I have an image of the Skylight! It can be seen above my picture.  I'll be picking it up in Buffalo in a few weeks and transporting it to New Jersey.  Then I'll contact the Architect for a meeting.
In the picture here of me with a window in the background is another version of "Sister Water".

Happy New Year to everyone!
This past week I finished all the building and firing of the mini-skylight.  I also did the tracing of the center piece.  This coming week, I'll finish all the tracing and matting (painting) and firing.  It will be ready for the lecture, then for the leading and framing!
