Last Saturday night the town was hopping, someone got a little tipsy and fell into this beautiful panel.
The repairs were done...

Each Corner of the Chapel points to the relative "corners" of the great State of Nevada.
The intent of the design is to not only provide a panorama of our beautiful state, but to center the visitor in the midst of it all. While this Chapel will serve well as a meeting place for general services and worship of the creator of this beauty, it must also serve in providing a sanctuary of solitude during quiet prayers for a passing hero. This design respectfully addresses this balance. Many people to thank.
Mike Northan, Kit DeCarlo for all your help and long evenings A big thank you to Quality Tile and Marble for their generous donation that made this project possible. To A. Perry and St Marys Art Center for their kindness of utilizing their open space... Looking for breathtaking custom stained glass in Nevada?

Why Choose Custom Stained Glass?
Bring Your Vision to Life Whether you’re interested in residential stained glass windows, church restorations, or custom art panels, we bring passion and expertise to every project. Let us create a stunning stained glass masterpiece that reflects your unique style. In Virginia City, we boast one of Northern Nevada's premier art centers, St. Mary's Art Center. They've recently hosted "Head & Toes," an engaging collaborative project involving local artists. In this event, one artist starts a painting by completing the top half of a canvas and then covers it. Another artist then finishes the bottom half without seeing the first artist's work. The final reveal is always a wonderful surprise! In 2023, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Comstock cult classic film, "God Monster of Indian Flats." As part of the commemoration, artists contributed to complete projects inspired by the film. These projects showcase the incredible talent and creativity within our community, celebrating both our local art scene and our unique cultural heritage.
The photos don't do justice to how beautiful these eight panels truly are. Sometimes with a vertical insert, over time gravity can cause a slight bowing to the panels. During the restoration, 7 panels were restabilized and 1 panel was completely rebuilt.
A truly beautiful design, as pure as the first Sierra snow. During the first shut down, I received the state project for the Veteran's Bluebird Chapel, this is at the Veteran Wellness Center in Reno.
Most of this year I have been working with distributors at half staff trying to get the materials here. It's been challenging with the pandemic. I'm building a 98 panel mural with a deadline in June. This piece represents the four directions of Nevada, with the entrance showing the bristlecone pine. I must say, living in and out of different hospitals and rehab centers with my parents for the last 15 years, I have never seen such amazing accommodations for vets and long care facilities as I see with the veterans wellness center here in Reno. Beautifully done and well deserved. |
