Over the past few
days I’ve shared some photos from a wonderful exhibition here in Seattle and
today I would like to share some more of the really awesome ones that I’m
delighted to have as a part of “my world” today! The Chihuly Garden and Glass is an exhibition
that explores the inspiration and influences of Northwest artist, Dale Chihuly.
He has pioneered new techniques in art and influenced generations of artists.
His creativity and generosity of spirit are easily seen in the beauty of his
work. This is a longer post than I usually have, but it was such a special place!! I hope you enjoy the few I’m sharing with you today from “my world”!!

What a fabulous set of pictures. Love all that delicate glasswork, especially the glass flamingos in the gardens.
His art is so distinctive and amazing, nice shots. I saw some of his work in Bellevue, I think it was in the Microsoft building.
Thanks for your thoughts. I can't go to the office today as it's in the evacuation zone. But our house is safe from this fire, it's on the other side of town. It's so dry here, all it would take is an idiot tossing a cigarette out of his car...
so unique. his visions are amazing.

Fantastic glass sculptures!!
The Chihuly museum was closed when we went to it. We were so disappointed. Now that I've seen your gorgeous photos, I'm even more disappointed. Sigh.
These colours are indeed a joy for the sense of sight.
Please have a good Tuesday.

That glassware is remarkable!
It was really rather cold when I took the images on my post - and the frost stayed in the shadows all day. We never get days like that here where I live now!

I am traveling, and I need your advice, How to adapt from the middle of winter to a hot tropical island. I am here at 3 .15 am reading your blog. and this is the third morning.
I am hibernating, not wanting to go out. Took some flower photos and birds in a cage, luckily, I am staying in my sister's place and don't have to pay for accommodation
