Inspiration in Autumn


The Chihuly exhibit at the Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids has been on my to-do list since it opened in May. I finally made it there in last days of the exhibit this month.
It was so magical in its autumn backdrop. I think I came at the right time.
It also made me think about organic shapes and the use of color. I know this will influence my work in the future.
Now if I only had a Chihuly instillation in my own garden, life would be just about perfect.

    Enjoy the day, Diane!

  3. I love this exhibit! I saw it when it was about 95 out this summer. I wish I could get up there before it leaves...

  5. I'll take a Chihuly installation in my garden as well… The color palette of glass and the forms created with it are SO amazing!!!
