My cousin Jason recently died of melanoma, after a week in the hospital. That week-- while we all hoped he was going to pull through, I drew this stainglass design, and set it aside, thinking I'd have plenty of time to finish it and show it to him.
He passed away, as I said. All I can do is finish it, and hope that he sees it wherever he is... XD I'm hoping to ACTUALLY make it out of glass, but until then this will sate me.
It's colored Orange (the ribbon color of melanoma) and Purple (the color of cancer and sickness). The upper beam of the cross will be metal, to signify support of modern techniques, and the horizontal beam is wood, which is supposed to signify the family tree... and support of family.
That is a gorgeous design. It really is beautiful. I'm sure your cousin would love it, wherever he is.
