About five years ago on our annual hiatus to Florida to escape the New England winters, we spent about three days in St. Petersburg. What a beautiful city. We had some good weather most of the time but when we encountered some rain, we headed into the Morean Arts Center that is the permanent home to the Chihuly Collection. I had never heard of Dale Chihuly before, but my friend who was with us was an art teacher and knew of his works. I wasn't sure what to expect, but was blown away by the shapes and colors of the glass. Better yet, photographs were permitted of the art. Chihuly is world famous and is a magician in creating artwork with such a delicate material. His art ranges from small to massive. His art has been seen all over the world. I have since visited his Garden and Glass Museum in Seattle and was even more impressed with his talent. If you ever have a chance to see his work, I would recommend that you do so.
