For Cappy Thompson, beauty grabs your attention, arouses your emotion, and involves you intellectually. She strives to cultivate beauty in the richly symbolic narratives comprised of vibrant reverse-painted enamels on mouth blown glass panels. Stylistically Thompsons figures, with their fluid black outlines, hark back to the Persian miniatures, Northern European woodcuts, and Gothic stained glass windows that first inspired Cappy. She combines images drawn from spiritual traditions with elements of her dream life and meanderings of imagination to make visual poems where the viewers revel in the ripe narrative.
