The goal I plan on achieving by taking these classes is to be able to use the new skill in my art. I have always found the skill of creating stained glass amazing and have wanted to added stained glass to my artwork. I hope that by adding this to my art that I can create suncatchers and other pieces to an idea of a lighted display piece that I have had in my head. I would love to be able to work full time as an artist instead of being a hobby part time artist. I will know that I have been successful once I am able to take this art Idea from just an idea to an actual visual piece. Plus I will have a new art skill to add more depth to my ability as a artist.
