Those of you who follow my Reflections of a Glass Artist blog, may recall a recent post about Lexi’s Dream. To sum that up, after Lexi and I had our soul searching evening, she had a dream about a glass bowl. She encouraged me to make it and I did. You can read more about Lexi’s dream piece by following the link to Lexi’s Dream above.
Now, my husband/best friend/soul mate, Dan, has had a dream. In it, I have made either a pair of earrings or a pendant that look like very detailed…almost realistic leaves. He thought they may have been Maple leaves. He said the details were almost exactly like a real leaf.
The coincidence here is that I’ve been thinking about leaves. I love their beauty. I knew I needed to incorporate them in my work at some point. Clearly, it’s time to do that and see if I can capture the essence of Dan’s dream……..
I feel compelled to answer what I perceive are these calls to my creativity by the people I trust & love the most in my life. The outcome from Lexi’s Dream was even more ideas for glass work, as I feel is evidenced by my Fallen Leaves bowl.
I just incorporated a leaf into my new logo:
I came up for the idea of this new logo as I was working on the redesign of my website.
It’s clear now that I need to begin working on leaf designs for a new series. Stay tuned for further developments. In the meantime, I have been working on more of my Soul Searching series and I look forward to publishing some of the latest works in this series. You can see a glimpse of a few of them on my website.
Until next time, aspire to be more as an artist and a person.
