2. 2 Part 1 – Multiple Slide Sets Macchia Madder Red Persian Ikebana Persian Ceiling

3. 3 Macchia -- 1 These have to be my favorite type of glass art he’s done.

4. 4 Macchia -- 2 In person, these are truly beautiful.

5. 5 Madder Red Persian -- 1 Walking up the stairs, I saw them through the wrought iron and thought it made a beautiful contrast.

6. 6 Madder Red Persian -- 2 These made quite a striking display; viewed both from downstairs and on their level.

7. 7 Ikebana -- 1 Ikebana is a form of Japanese flower arrangement. Emphasis is on linear construction, rhythm and color.

8. 8 Ikebana -- 2

9. 9 Persian Ceiling -- 1 Interesting to look at in person. You walk under a glass ceiling with all these various glass pieces arranged above you. I believe I recall hearing that this ceiling took the longest to set up.

10. 10 Persian Ceiling -- 2

11. 11 Part 2 – Single Slide Sets Navaho Blankets Basket Sets Reed Spears Seaflowers Fiery Scarlet & Sapphire Sterling Towers

12. 12 Navaho Blankets I’m not a pink person, but these are really nice in person.

13. 13 Basket Sets These are so light and airy.

14. 14 Reed Spears I took the pics from inside the DAI. Again, I liked the contrast of the wrought iron to the glass.

15. 15 Seaflowers A “study” in white/clear glass

16. 16 Fiery Scarlet & Sapphire Sterling Towers At night, you could see the Fiery Scarlet Tower from I-75.

17. 17 The End In person, this was a beautiful glass show. I wish I’d had a better camera, but the pictures are really nice
