Hello everyone! My name is Jordan and I have been working with glass since graduating college. I am a lawyer by day and a glass artist by night. My love for stained glass mosaics started several years ago on a vacation. I walked into an art gallery and was blown away by a stained glass mosaic that was for sale. Unfortunately, I couldn't afford it, so I instead attempted to replicate it. As you might know, your first attempt is not always going to be your best. My version didn't look like the gallery piece, but I loved the crafting process and quickly became a glass hobbyist.
Working in law is very time consuming. One day, I would like to be able to sell my pieces and have more of an online presents to show off my work. However, for the past few years I have only had the time to make the mosaics for friends, family, and myself.
As you can see from my profile picture, some of my favorite mosaics to make are sports related. What fan wouldn't love an art piece with their favorite team's logo. I live in Pittsburgh, so naturally my favorite piece is the Steelers Stained Glass Mosaic.
