Slaag Is Watching
The English word dragon comes from the ancient Greek word, drakon which is based on the verb dérkomai “to see clearly” and literally means “one who stares”. Although we are culturally committed to reason and analytics today, we still need our fear of monsters to encompass “the other”, the unknown, and to be alert to unprocessed ideas and situations.
dimensional mosaic: lava, cinders, slate, slag, glass tesserae framed: each panel is 32.5”H x 38.5”W x 7”
Holy Spirit
In this glass mosaic the dynamic image of the dove invites a more active participation with the spirit. Generated lines in the blue field present the winds of Pentecost. In addition to the reflected light on the wings, both opaque and translucent tesserae are used to articulate the flames.

New Moon
This panel utilizes the subtle quality of nocturnal light. The glow of moonlight on the leaves is enhanced by the slightly different densities and tones in the glass. Historic Kokomo glass formulas from previous centuries pays homage to the long tradition of image making in this medium.
stained glass: framed: 43.5”H x 33.75”W
I Am the Vine
This small mini mosaic is intended as a contemplative image (Visio Divina). A descending visual form represents “I Am the Vine; You Are the Branches”. The theme is reiterated in the background with secondary visual information of star crosses that interrupt the blue field.

Dragon Scales Series: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, & Cosmos
In these panels, elements are repeated, not mechanically but with variation. An apparently simple grid pattern becomes dynamic instead of static. It is subtle and complex.
stained glass: framed: Earth, 54”H x 24”W; Water, 52”H x 22.5”W; Fire, 54”H x 24”W; Air, 52”H x 22.5”W; Cosmos, 53”H x 23.5”W
Mauve Rose
An elegant presentation of the iconic rose. This art deco style panel is distinguished by unusual sculpted and boldly tinted bevels. “As rare as a rare perfume that breathes in the heart of a rose.”
tinted sculptured bevels and leaded stained glass: framed: 30”H x 24”W
Heavenly Blue
Fused and leaded stained-glass with beveled border in a mahogany room divider.
each glass panel is 48”H x 25”W : each door panel is 76” H x 32” W
Lily Pond
The fused elements below the water offer uninterrupted lead lines and is juxtaposed to a different technique that offers distinction between the surface lilies and what lies below.
fused and leaded stained glass: framed: 24 H” x 20 W”
Coosa
This work was designed and constructed with the intent of an exterior installation where the fish can swim in the landscape. The implied movement is integral to the concept of this work. Fused glass created subtle tones and slumping facilitated adherence to the sculpted substrate. The andamento technique was used to show visual flow and direction.

A Cloud of Cloudless Sulfur Butterflies
The Cloudless Sulfur Butterfly is the inspiration for this small panel - Cloud of Cloudless Sulfur Butterflies. Voyagers have recorded seeing clouds of bright yellow butterflies over the ocean, presumably during their seasonal migrations.
fused and leaded stained glass: framed: 16.75”H x 16.75”W
Grape Vine
The impression of depth is accomplished with light tones and less dense glass choices for the highlighted leaves. Sculpting of the grape cluster includes some fused highlights and dark tones for the shadows. The vine indicates dabbled light by utilizing color transitions in the sheet of stained-glass.
fused and stained-glass: framed: 25.5”H x 19.5”H
Funky Fleur
What began as a napkin sketch developed into a stained-glass panel honoring the culture of New Orleans. The traditional fleur-de-lis caught in a whirlwind of chaotic movement. The glass choices remind the viewer of both dark skies and, the hint of Mardi Gras colors (purple for justice, green for faith, gold for power). Tying it all together is a red ribbon in a field of swirling blue. While various cultures assign different meanings to colors, here the artist chooses the juxtapositions to visualize the energy of a city and its peoples.
