A Facebook friend of mine posted some gorgeous photos from this exhibit above today and I was captivated. I had not heard of Dale Chihuly before but I researched him and found out how incredibly talented he is. He’s an American glass sculptor who has been creating glass art for over 40 years and has permanent collections in over 200 museums worldwide. He also has exhibitions in many botanical gardens throughout the United States. I couldn’t help thinking how beautiful it must be inside his mind. What a wonderful imagination he must have to create such stunning pieces of art work.
“I don’t know if something can be too colorful. Color is one of the great properties of glass and is more intense in glass than any other material.” -Dale Chihuly
Just a side thought, the way I found this art work through Facebook is a great example of why I love social media. The power of sharing; you never know who might see it and then pass it on, or how it might impact someone. I’m so glad my friend posted photos of his exhibit, I was truly inspired and uplifted today. Art has been something I’ve really gravitated towards lately. I have not posted on here a lot because I’ve been consumed by school but also I’ve been on Tumblr & Pinterest in my spare time. It’s good to post in here again, this blog is like an old friend it’s good to see.
