Glass Art of Dale Chihuly
In many circles, Dale Chihuly is considered the most inventive glass sculptor in the history of the medium. I had heard of Chihuly's glass work for decades, but not experienced it until I saw it on display at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, in 2009. I arrived late in the afternoon to an impressive array of glass art  interspersed with the desert flora. But when the sun went down, and the displays were lighted, it became other worldly, and magical! I have since visited the Museum of Glass, in his native Tacoma, and the new Garden and Glass Museum at the Seattle Center. At present, Dale Chihuly's art  is included in more than 200 museums worldwide.  To learn more, check out his website,  www.chihuly.com
A word about photography of other's art. I'm generally not a proponent of doing so, but I'm not trying to create art from the images of Chihuly's Glass Art.  I am just trying to share my experience with his work, hoping you can enjoy it vicariously, or perhaps motivate you to see his work when presented with the opportunity. ENJOY!
