This contemporary double entrance front door inserts with a transom window was one of the first independent commissions that I created for the client in Oakville back in 2003. As a young glass artist, I was very lucky to meet a client with an artistic background and cooperate on this project to reflect the unique contemporary style of living of the family. At that time I was adored by colours and intricate linework of Curtis R Doll Jr. His clear stained and leaded glass windows with beautiful geometry and intricate linework inspired me to create this door set inserts paying close attention to linework.  Ever since I treat lines not as a technical element to connect different pieces of glass but as a strong visual language to express and transform the interior space with light and glass. This project set a starting point for a large series of art glass in my portfolio

Additionally, for the same client, we created a set of suspended stained and leaded art glass panels for the double-height family room
