picasso stained glass Sometimes, I'm asked to copy things. I think it's OK to do this as long as my version of what is copied is different enough from the original that it wouldn't be an infringement of the copyright. I can usually achieve this to the satisfaction of my client and still vary the result enough to make me feel alright about it, too. Here, I was asked to do a stained glass version of a painting by the renown painter Pablo Picasso.My version has some of the lines and the proportions changed as well as some of the colors. This stained glass artwork includes many overlays, all of which were darkened to black along with the leadlines by a chemical patina.

This photo is rather dark because this artwork was mounted in a basement window well window. It is the type of window that can be opened so that people can escape from a basement when a fire blocks their leaving by the stairs. The thick black vertical line actually separates this artwork into two windows; the smaller one on the left is fixed while the larger one on the right can be opened by a crank in the lower right-hand corner. In these already-existing windows, both stained glass panels are mounted up against the two clear glass panes. This means that the larger stained glass panel cranks open along with the wood window frame its mounted in. This is a good example of how stained glass can be mounted in just about any window,
even bringing art to a tough spot like this.
