Light and lead

Pittwater Residence, NSW

1983

Commissioned by a 1980's mining magnate for his Pittwater home, this dramatic set of traditionally leaded antique glass windows references the owner’s passion for the water, riches from the earth and innate creativity as it infuses the cavern-like interior with colour and light.

The top image is the original watercolour drawing showing the full extent of the glass environment which wrapped around the client's billiard room. The large image is the final execution of the left hand panel.
