Back in 2020 a friend of mine commissioned me to make a window of a cannabis flower.  He legally grew it himself out in Colorado and wanted it embodied in stained glass.  When it was finished, I thought I would submit it to High Times Magazine to see what they thought about it.  They accept photos of people's crops and feature a select few, and I thought they may appreciate a new perspective on the flower the magazine is all about.

​

I submitted it to them many times over the past 4 years but had no luck getting a response.

 

In September of 2023 I received a message on Instagram from someone saying they saw my window in the latest issue of High Times.  They were congratulating me being a local artist who had my submission accepted and published.   I couldn't believe it!  They accepted the photo, but I missed their acceptance email.

 

Without this person letting me know, I may have never even known.  It was definitely a nice surprise.  Thanks Steve, High Times Magazine, and the good Samaritan that reached out to me.
