Jeff's Stained Glass Creations.
Jeff has developed a new mix of art media he calls intarsia/glass. He believes that he is the first
person to combine the two media in this manner. It is a combination of wood intarsia and stained
glass.
He has won numerous awards at various art shows for his work.
He sells many pieces and makes custom pieces on request.
