Friends, I have been so busy this week, in addition to finishing the hermit and pangur bรกn panels, I *also* finally finished my medieval green man #stainedglass panel! Iโm extremely pleased with how this turned out, I want to get lost in the cool, inviting darkness of this foliage #medievalists ๐งถ

Another piece I finished a while back, but I love it so much. Itโs made from very precious mouth blown glasses that I am likely to never see again once I run out. Theyโre so rich and clear, with such perfect textures. The lead lines in this are the fold lines from the paper crane hanging above!

Jana gets it. Hell, based on my past in manufacturing, there's already too many engineers who don't understand that just because they can draw it, doesn't mean it will work in the real world. AI makes that issue worse. The best engineers either get their hands dirty, or listen to those who do.
