Beginning Sunday, Dec. 12 and continuing throughout December, you can see 5 of her large stained glass windows at the Coffee Corner in Southtowne, 28th and Oak. The retrospective embraces the whole 10-year evolution of English's work with glass. The show features the playful unicorn pictured above created for her 7-year-old daugher Sarah, a very large mandala-centered window, "Here's Your Salad" created for the Truckstop, "The Plovers" (small birds on a rock by the green clear ocean), and her newest, just-completed work, white flowers from Thailand on a lush green background. English estimates she's made 20 or more windows, doors, lampshades, and smaller pieces on commission since she started in 1972. She has taught "hundreds of people" the art of working in stained glass in classes for Parks and Rec, Maude Kerns, and LCC. "I encourage students to create their own design rather than copy a pattern from a book," she says. She enjoys the challenge of custom work, making a piece for a specific place, for a unique and special person. Many of her pieces are public, like the Truckstop window, one for Fountain of Juice, and a small Birkenstock. A former landlady in Veneta received a stunning "Grapes and Leaves" as a gift several years ago. Her "Herons" are in New York; she has only a photograph of this beautiful window. The most difficult challenge, says Ilene, was "to teach myself to be a craftsperson"—to learn to use tool's, to perfect her technique, to accept the challenge of executing difficult, very time-consuming projects like the four-and-a-half-foot geo metric design of the mandala window. For the last couple of years, Tenold Peterson of Junction City has been her teacher. He has helped her work with design and perspective, English feels. "He told me to study the real thing, work on detail: blow up a detail, make it very big, study anatomy—all techniques to make my work more like life," she says. She prefers to use European glass, even though it’s pearly twice as expensive, or to. buy from Uroboro’s in Portland whose glass makers have studied Tiffany's glass and can duplicate its elegance in combinations of colors not available anywhere else in the world. Come to the Coffee Corner in Southtowne this Sunday at 3 pm to see the exhibit and meet the artist whose visions in glass are there for your pleasure. —Lois Wadsworth Put some SPARKLE A . fr •* % A A unto your Season YASUTOMO NII 1 ■METALLICA MARKERS * R 4 A A A GOLD 4 Sier Bronzes Small and Large nies Oregon Art Supply:229.543s.
