I’m so excited to finally share the finished stained glass window of my Great Celestial Beast. I imagine Great Celestial Beasts as the darkness between stars, creatures of liminality and transformation. As such, I imagine they appear a bit differently to everyone. Unlit, the window is nearly black, with the Beast hidden in the solder lines, then comes to life with color in the sunlight. (I’ll post unlit and detail shots later.)
This thing is enormous, heavy, and would not have been possible without @dllecky forging the frame and being the best support. Thank you <3
This window took me nearly a year and a half to complete, and I learned so much making it. This Beast appeared to me as I struggled with advancements in my degenerative disability. As my life shattered, I used the shards to create new stories: of transformation, movement, and magic hidden all around me. I needed a sky with teeth, a fierce guardian to remind me of the great beauty and strength found in the dark.
