I think I have not seen anything so lovely in a long time...purusing thru runaroundparis waiting for comments windows to open adn found you on her favorites.
Have you ever seen his installations of his work over the canals in Venice?? Amazing...his stuff was here in NC at our local museum and it's incredible. He also decorated a huge several story-high atrium in the Science building on the University of Puget Sound campus I've seen...
Just to clarify why I put this up today with no text. I live in New York City. 5 years ago I saw the World Trade Towers go down from my rooftop. This is not an easy day/week or anytime I think about it, for me. I wanted to post something that was beautiful and hopeful today, so voilà.
For just a second, I thought you were in St Louis where we have a Chihuly exhibit at our own Botanical Garden ... wouldn't that have been fun?! It's nice, this day, something of beauty.
Bonjour ! I’m Carol Gillott, a former NYer living on Île Saint-Louis in a 21 meter chambre de bonne. As a Paris blogger, travel writer, watercolorist, and photographer, I share my latest escapades so you can walk around the city vicariously in my shoes. To experience even more of the Parisian life, sign up to receive my beautifully Illustrated monthly letters where I paint the Paris your dreams and mail them
to you wherever you are. You can order these letters, along with my art prints, at my Etsy shop.
Describe what you love about France in 3 words. Can we make it 5 words? Eyes, ears, nose, tastebuds + brain. Paris stimulates all my senses constantly. I’m inspired all the time – endlessly surprised and amused. New York doesn’t do it for me anymore…
Dale Chihuly is becoming the Andy Warhol of the 21st century. (I mean that in a good way.)
