Stained, but the good kind

Stained glass is one of the most beautiful forms of art since the medieval era. For the most part, stained glass was used for religious purposes and placed in churches. The sun would shine during services and the beautiful colors would shine through the window onto the congregation. These works of art are very popular and are still used today.

This picture is a beautiful design of what looks like a sun, but has many other shapes inside of it. It looks like there is the face of an owl in the center, and has alternating colors going around the circle. I think that this piece could be in a church, but from the picture there is no way of telling.

I have a strong appreciation for stained glass. Last year, I took the class at MHS taught by Larry Austin, and no we are not related. Id say it is the best art class at school. I made some pieces that I am truly proud of and have hanging up around the house. It is a great class and more should take it.

I like art, but I am not that good at it. I wish I was, but I am not. I feel like I have good ideas, but I cannot put them on paper. Now Drew has great ideas, but i don't know, I think he has the same trouble I have. But this 'problem' did not affect me in Stained Glass. So maybe, if you can't draw or paint or sculpt, glass is the class for your @$$ (bleeped out).

God, I really hope Drew can read this before the end of senior year is over. He's gotta take the class. I look out for him because he is my hero.

Drew Harris is my hero.
