stunning Chihuly! I love his work juxtaposed with nature (hence, real/ethereal – you are so clever!) And I love seeing his work around the world, and how they are set in the site.

Hi, Deb. My first try at One Word Sunday. Thank you for sharing your post. I have never seen Chihuly’s work in person, though I admire it on my Pinterest saves. Looking forward to the future when I will.
Here’s my post – Ethereal.

I just answered my question–squinted through cataracts and saw Chihuly’s name 🙂 I’m awestruck by his work, he’s from my area (Seattle, WA, USA).

Yes, an incredible artist. I first saw his work in Florida, and there are often a few of his pieces popping up around London. But his huge display at Kew Gardens was phenomenal!

Oh yes, I imagine it was!! I’ve only seen his work on TV documentaries–“phenomenal” is truly the apt description.

Pretty! Are they made of glass? They look fragile.
