Originally a quick sketch was the inspiration for this sculpture. I wanted to create an outside sculpture that would be able to survive the Maine winters. With minimal training I set about welding the basic structure. After living with the skeletal form for a while I knew it needed some kind if sheathing. My father was a sailor and i had seen him work with fiberglass and I thought this would be a good base. The idea for the stained glass came out of the blue and I just went with it.
The accompanying images show the different phases of the construction of this sculpture.
