Maya Smelser Capstone

My capstone is an original stained glass window that I designed and created in collaboration with Josie Silver. We worked with The Stained Glass Project, which was also both of our internships last year. The window will be installed in the main entrance of the school building, as a way to welcome everyone entering the community and to make the school a more beautiful place. The space theme is inspired by our school’s mascot, the Rockets. The process of making a stained glass window is very fixed and specific, and also takes a lot of time. In completing this project, I was able to expand on and further develop skills I already had. This was the biggest art project I’ve ever taken on, but I couldn’t be prouder of the finished product. I’m so excited to share it with my peers and the future of the SLA.
