Of Legend, Creation and Dream

The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious.
It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science.
Whoever does not know it is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed.

Albert Einstein


The following six window designs are inspired by the American Indian tales of creation and transformation, Southern Oregon's legend of mountain explorations, and the area's flowers, insects and animals.
