STANLEY LIVINGSTON
Stanley Livingston is a well know and respected Los Angeles area glass Artist. Mr. Livingston's Art Glass creations are owned and collected by many prominent Hollywood Celebrities.
A celebrity in his own right, Mr. Livingston is also know to millions of TV views as “CHIP” from the enduring TV Series, MY THREE SONS. With a twelve year long prime-time run, My Three Sons became the second-longest running situation comedy in television history. The show originally aired from 1960 through 1972. The Series immediately went into daytime syndication. My Three Sons helped launch the Nickelodeon Network in 1985, the TV Land Network in 1995 and, currently, the classic series can be seen on the Hallmark Network. My Three Sons celebrates its 47th year on television this year!
During the long hours of filming of My Three Sons, Mr. Livingston discovered and developed his other artistic talent – drawing and painting. Mr. Livingston is an accomplished artist in all mediums – including oil paints, watercolor, acrylic and pastel. Intrigued by light and color, Mr. Livingston began to experiment with light, glass and glass staining mediums around 1980. He subsequently made Art Glass his specialty. In the past 24 years, Mr. Livingston has completed more than 1000 commissioned pieces of artwork.
Still involved in the Televisions and Motion Picture Industries, Mr. Livingston’s production company, FIRST TEAM PRODUCTIONS produced the feature film, "CHECKERS". Mr. Livingston recently completed directing all twenty episodes of a new Children’s TV Series slated for airing on PBS stations in 2008. Additionally, Mr. Livingston completed a pair of landmark Documentaries, THE ACTOR'S JOURNEY PROJECT. The first of the documentaries, "THE ACTOR'S JOURNEY for KIDS" is set to be released in April of 2007. The second documentary, "THE ACTOR'S JOURNEY" will be released later in the year. Both documentaries focus on children, teens and young adults involvement in the entertainment industry and the launching careers as actors.
In between production duties, Mr. Livingston still finds time to dabble in the Arts.

STAINED GLASS encompasses many forms and techniques. What most people refer to generically as “stained glass” is usually CUT and LEADED GLASS and sometimes COPPER FOIL technique. However, there are many other stained-glass techniques – such as glass fired onto or fused to other glass. There are other techniques where specialized enamels or acrylic colors are fired directly onto the glass to delineate form and color. There are photographic processes whereby images are photo-flashed onto glass (usually used put human faces onto glass). Some stained-glass Artisans combine some or all of the above techniques. I am one of those!
My ART GLASS encompasses fusing hand-mixed acrylic colors and dyes onto a base of clear quarter-inch plate glass (or tempered glass - if required). I sometimes fuse other pieces and types of glass - as well as glass eye catchers, glass jewels, glass bevels, ornate copper and brass filigree to the Base Plate - depending on the effect I am trying to achieve with my subject matter. This technique allows me complete control over my colors as well as the flexibility to achieve the intricate detail only possible in copper foil technique.
Since the Artwork is created on one side of the glass base plate (the obverse side) - the back (or inverse side) is smooth and completely weatherproof if installed in an exterior window or door. Additionally, the 1/4" thick base plate is structurally very solid. By contrast, Cut and Leaded Glass technique tends to deteriorate and weaken with age - the lead came gets soft and the weight of the glass causes the window to bow out, the pieces of glass to crack, or in a worse case scenario - the whole window simply falls apart.
