Kris's Gallery of Glass and Wood

Welcome to the gallery. Here you will find temporary and permanent displays of glass, stained glass, wood and sculpture articles; plus anything else that takes my eye.
Some are from current craft workers but many items have been rescued from various ignoble ends.
Some of the pieces look as if they have an interesting history. Perhaps you can help fit pieces in the jig-saw?

Sculpture

After decades of procrastination Kris has finally learned to sculpt in clay. My current speed of working is so slow that it would have been more suited to the pace of an ancient cathedral. My naturalistic style is the sum of my life's influences and has resonances with the "New Sculpture" of the late 19th century. It will be nice to leave my models with their likeness that should last for a few generations.

Music and movement

My woodwork teachers at secondary school encouraged me, a bookworm, to try practical things like wood turning and also sailing. Being part of the school choir, especially in front of school and parents at the annual Prize Day, gave me a taste of the power of choral music to move the soul. None of these things became a main thrust in my life but they made me richer by the experience.

It is good to see similar influences on young lives today.

The world of boy choirs is well represented by video clips official, and unofficial, on YouTube.
The quote "You can't step in the same river twice." is very true of live performances.

Take a look at the video clip of excerpts from Libera's 2007 pre-tour performance "Libera in concert - 2007".

Libera have released their first Christmas-themed album. A video of the "Carol of the Bells" is on YouTube

They now have an Official YouTube site with high definition video clips - including the BBC Songs of Praise documentary.
