Collection: Wayne Reardon
Stained glass artist Wayne Reardon grew up in St. John’s, Newfoundland, where he admired the historic stained glass windows in churches and homes. After moving to Toronto in his early 20’s, Wayne’s interest in stained glass grew as he admired the artistry of the many stained glass windows in old Toronto. He decided to take classes, and began designing and creating custom designs. His passion was ignited, and led him to further develop his skills at night school. After raising a family, retiring and moving to Galt, Ontario a number of years ago, Wayne was inspired to reconnect to his art. He has been creating amazing high-quality pieces of bevelled, coloured and patterned glass ever since. “I design pieces that emphasize the beauty of the glass and, in keeping with my Libra nature, I prefer clean and balanced lines. From the onset of designing the pattern to selecting the colours and textures of glass, I feel a deep connection with the past.”
