Nevermore (joining and burning)

 Half way through this seemingly endless piece and I have added half of the three dimensional wings. Im pretty sure i have invented two new processes during the course of this window.
 I belive these are 1) transitioning between leaded light and copper foil in a single piece.                                
 2) burning a layer of ash onto the surface of the glass (carbonizing) and using a fine point to draw onto it. then i fix it with a matt varnish.
 
 Two more wings to go and then finishing with patina acid and black iron polish.





 Its getting there.
