I have seen his work in Vegas, in Europe and in Canada mostly in hotels and even a large outdoor sculpture in Venice that I just stumbled across when I was wandering.Cindy McMathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10786235605189409252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-36183478844146220282017-06-28T17:13:32.730-05:002017-06-28T17:13:32.730-05:00Chilhuly is amazing.

Got to see some floating sculptures in a garden space in Chicago many moons back now but they were some of them 3 feet around lily pad like creations in many colors.

We've seen two exhibits of his work and it is mesmerizing. Your lunch looks very good, even though you had to wait and got a different kind of bread.

Time will tell.<br /><br />Speaking of time, it has been a long, long time (over a year) since my last blog post. I do want to get back to Green Crafting eventually. But I recently came up with an idea for a new blog, and I launched it today. For my first post, I'm playing along with T is for Tuesday. It's good to be back. :)Denise Pricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04627425586228447868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-74972346623405829812017-06-27T12:13:32.669-05:002017-06-27T12:13:32.669-05:00came back to respond to your comment re my comment...came back to respond to your comment re my comment - the Chihuly exhibit at Kew was years before I started either blog, how time flies! so it would have also been years before I got my digital camera, and the photos will be in a box somewhere!!!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10690233874810368197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-39505707014456373932017-06-27T11:37:49.033-05:002017-06-27T11:37:49.033-05:00I do adore Chihuly's glass sculptures!

We saw an exhibition at the Columbus Arboretum, and it was amazing how glass structures could blend into a flower bed and actually seem like they were more flowers! (Tall graceful glass pieces 'planted' into the dirt, etc.) A similar style huge hanging piece is also at the Columbus Museum of Art. So beautiful. But I wouldn't want to be the one to climb up there and dust it!! <br /><br />The food you had for lunch does look really good, even though you had to wait. I would have settled for the bread that arrived too! The paintings you showed are wonderful too...did you visit the rest of the museum, or just the restaurant? hmmm...now I am wanting to go to an art museum....♥Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09657202600364368434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-28703988622342232452017-06-27T09:24:41.631-05:002017-06-27T09:24:41.631-05:00love those paintings but hate waiting to get a sea...love those paintings but hate waiting to get a seat in cafesLorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798465942659503011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-91170534018451807052017-06-27T08:46:26.610-05:002017-06-27T08:46:26.610-05:00I enjoyed your museum tour.

Not only was she the first US woman to serve on the UN, but I believe that was her agenda to get a human rights "document" passed. She is one of my idols in life.
