All Aboard

Design by Mark Waterbury
An 18" x 24" rectangular panel of an old-time steam locomotive barreling through the countryside with a hearty cloud of steam rising from its impressive smoke stack. The train, track, and landscape have loads of detail added through the use of wire overlay and glass paint. Artist wax builds up the cowcatcher to give it a 3-D effect. This project is constructed using the copper foil technique. The pattern in the issue can be enlarged, or full-size pattern #108 may be purchased from Glass Patterns Quarterly.

GPQ Winter 2001, Volume 17, Number 4
