I do like to avoid letting my art come across as decorative. I'd for one hate it if someone bought my work because it looked good but they never thought about what it meant.

Like you, I have issues with art being sold as decorative commodities. It kinda drained the pleasure for me that I was seeking in my own stained glass business. I began to feel I was making just another pretty *thing* to match the drapes or blend with the sofa. I'm not bothered by those who do that, it just wasn't the satisfaction I desired. And like you, I get what I want by expressing my true self and my own visions. I don't do *pretty* anymore. I do pretty fuckin' personal. And that, my friend, is how we found eachother. On my "paydays", I don't need to go to the bank. I can just read yours, and others, kind comments, and I'm satisfactorily Paid in Full! So Cheers to you!
Your stained glass work is clearly highly skilled, and I can see how that could so easily become a craft, rather than art, with people asking for works because it would go so well in their lounge room.
It's something I am always talking to my students about with the studio works they produce and even in music.

Although we may appear invinsible or unreachable, we are made of a thin layer that separates our inner self from the world, hiding almost all our golden self. Huuu~ I got carried away hahaha... XD
I may not comment all your artworks but it's as simple as sublime, with either perspective
i like your comments, actually discussing art not just the visual image.
you can get carried away on my work any time.
thanks
