    So, it wasn’t until you, and several other commenters, mentioned Dale Chihuly that I went and researched who the artist was for the sculpture I posted for “Twisted”…and you were right, it was him as well. No wonder both mine and yours are eerily similar!

    Congrats on being this week’s site. Chihuly’s glassworks are incredible - there’s a great PBS special on how he and a crew of assistants manage to create these pieces.

    Heard of Dale Chihuly only a few weeks ago when the photohunt theme was glass. Great artist. He made lovely things and if he ever exhibits in Holland I will try to go and see for myself.
    Your entry for twisted is really amazing!

    Thank you! (and today is the day I don’t have one up…on travel to Mom’s house…)
    ;-) I am really excited that I’m the site of the week!

    When I first looked at your photo I tought it was a huge bunch of garlic. It’s amazing how Chihuly can make this art out of glass. I’ve seen his work at the Belagio Hotel. The entire lobby ceiling is beautiful colorful glass.
    Great take on the theme.

    Very cool. I’ve been wanting to go to see his stuff. I’ve seen a couple articles on the sculptures.

    Nice! I’ve never seen Chihuly’s art in person. I would like to!

    Holy cow! I did the same thing by artist Dale Chihuly! I did the tree of Peace at the Turning Stone Casino!!!

    Wow! That is amazing! I wonder how they get it all together without breaking parts of it. Wonderful choice for twisted. Congrats on the “site of the day” selection.

    THAT is awesome!!! I LOVE it! At first I thought it was hanging garlics - but I was wondering WHAT caused those awesome curls and twists! NOW, of course, I understand! VERY COOL!!!
