Stained Glass Workshop
Workshop Track – Master Stained Glass Artisan Leia Powell has been a JordanCon regular for nearly a decade. Her stained glass dragons and faeries live in our homes and our hearts, and who could forget last year’s Art Show People’s Choice Award winner – “The Florentine Carousel?” When JordanCon decided to go virtual with a variety of different panels and even adapting the gaming track, the Workshop Track team reached out to Leia to see if she could whip something up for us all. She took the better part of a Sunday in her locked down workshop, Wildcat Mountain Artistry, and recorded this treat for us. Feel free to leave any questions for Leia and she will be sure to answer as quick as she can. Enjoy and please leave her some feedback! Wildcat Mountain Artistry on Facebook and Etsy.
