What a wonderful place, Angela, and the blown glass is exquisite to say the least!!! Is this work for display or for sale? Beautiful images of all!!!


Donna, the botanical gardens were gorgeous, but we really didn't focus on the flowers since we had all this art scattered about!! His work is spectacular and I really don't think it's for sale, I know they have his work shown all over the country.... but maybe for the right price a piece can be bought, but I know I don't have that kind of money!!
We went on one of the hottest days, so I had to delete so many pictures because the sun was so bright, but I did manage to salvage quite a bit. On certain days, the gardens are opened at night and all his work is lit from within!! I have a friend who did go at night and I saw her work on FB.... gorgeous!! It's there till October, so maybe....
Glad you enjoyed this set and I always appreciate your comments!!

I'd have to convince David... I wouldn't want to travel to the Bronx at night, it's a long drive.

I went to the NYBG in the beginning of August to see this spectacular glass display!! I was not away of this artist, but thankfully my friend knows it all and I'm glad she does!!

This series will be have many parts, since the display was huge and I tried to capture most of it to share. I'm attaching a link in case you'd like to know more about this amazing artist that works in glass!!

Thanks poprock for your visit and comment... glad you enjoyed and I know you must have been in awe seeing them in person, like I was! I'd love to go at night to see them glowing from within, but too far to travel again!

Got to the Gardens around 3pm. Stayed until 10. Absolutely breathtaking at night. The neon display was special as was the boat. Still working through the images.
