About Us
Ron Johnson, Owner / Artist
Ron had a sign business in the present SGI location for over 35 Years. During that time he learned of the overlay process for creating art-glass and was intrigued by the concept and attractive finished product. In 2002 one of his sign clients, a local Real Estate Agent, was ordering signs to list her customers location and business for sale. Ironically it ended up being the Salt Lake operation of the overlay art-glass process. Ron decided to buy the business and switch careers from signs to art-glass production. He enjoys the work very much and is anxious to show its benefits. He invites everyone to visit the showroom as well as the virtual showroom on the website here.
A Brief History of The Overlay Method
Over 45 years ago, a couple from the United States was traveling in Europe. They were impressed with the beauty and majesty of the magnificent stained glass windows found there, mostly in the church cathedrals. They came home and developed the overlay fabrication process that duplicates the beauty of traditional stained glass, but uses modern 21st Century methods and materials to achieve that same appearance.
