A triptych I made as a memorial for a teacher and administrator at the school where my wife has worked for ten years now. Gretchen was a wonderful woman and these were donated to honor her and her passion for education, art, literature and poetry. Made with antique and architectural glass, glass nuggets, antique cast rondels, and beveled glass, the panels stretch nine feet from left to right and cover an area of twenty one square feet. The sandblasted text is Stanley Kunitz’s poem “The Layers’. My wife and I studied it as part of Gretchen’s poetry group. The windows are in the school library. Seemed appropriate.
