One group of designs that has emerged is, perhaps, best characterized as personal visions, certainly a term that could apply to Sue’s Blazing, Brilliant Skies — a continually evolving group of shades that come and go from the shop before any formal portrait of them appears and would not be easy to duplicate exactly. This series began life several years ago as a group of custom ceiling shades evoking Desert Sunsets and has continued to expand. It now forms not only the basis of her newest shades, inspired by Art Glass pieces, it also includes more tones of sky and of emotion — from highly intense to calm and tranquil.

In keeping with the tradition of the Arts and Crafts movement we share and support the commitment to combining function and beauty in our surroundings, of using our local flora and fauna as inspiration in our designs, as well as learning to appreciate the design heritage that we encounter in the arts and crafts that Sue purchases to turn into our unique, eclectic and even inspired lighting.
