Beauty

Last week P and I had the opportunity to go to a concert and art exhibit at the local Arboretum. I had never been to an arboretum, and honestly I am not that into plants. My mom, mother in law, boss, and all my mom's friends are totally into plants. They can look at a plant or a bush and know the name, tell me how much to water it, and its type. I look at it and think, well that is green. Before hand, to say I was not into it would kind of be an understatement.
The art exhibit was glass work by Chihuly. It was awesome!!! I have never seen something so beautiful and unique, yet at the same time, it was as if the glass was supposed to be there. His art flowed so perfectly into the gardens. To think that all of this is made from glass is just awesome!







Are you an art fan? Do you have a favorite artist?

Chiluly's work is amazing. My husband did some phone work for him many years ago. I don't have a favorite artist but I am an art fan.
