Trip to Indy




I went to the Indianapolis Children's Museum not long ago with my sister. I had been dying to go, because I wanted to see a few sculptures from this famous glass artist named Dale Chihuly. I love his work. It is so amazing. Once on PBS they had a miniseries about his team and how they made all the different types of sculptures that they do, it was so beautiful. I think glass is much a great medium. The pictures I took of the work doesn't really do it all justice. You have to go for yourself.

The first is a giant sculpture that is 3-4 stories tall. The other is a bunch of glass pieces that are made to look like marine species, which are in the ceiling. So if you lay down, you can feel like you are under water.
