Mellow Yellow Monday - Blown Glass

- September 12, 2010

I saw this blown glass sculpture hanging from a ceiling in a shop in Chinatown. It looked like a Chihuly but I don't know for sure. It was so beautiful, I had to get a photo.

I had to google search to see what a Chihuly is.

It looks that those bulging eye goldfish. Very colorful.

Thanks for following.

Ther was a Chihuly exhibition at Kew Gardens in London that I went to a few years ago. There were both indoor and outdoor exhibits. It was my introduction to his work and I found it mind blowing. This beautiful sculpture certainly looks like one of his.

A big thanks to all who stopped by and commented.

Jean, I saw his work at the DeYoung a couple of years ago and like you, his work blew me away. This does look like his but I didn't inquire at the time. It certainly was spectacular though. Thanks for commenting

it's very pretty. I've always been fascinated by the glass blowing demonstrations. It's amazing how they can take a blob of glass and turn it into something spectacular.

That's why I prefer glass over diamonds, as latter are able to behave alike. Please have a good Tuesday.
