Yep! The Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts has a pretty little gallery among its exhibits that features some really amazing and inspiring work. I took these photos (under the watchful eye of the guard...no flashes allowed!) of some of the details that are just so cool. I treasure the miniature works of glass art that I hoard so dearly in my bead collection, but these big-ass pieces are just so amazing!
If you click on the linked titles of each of them, it'll take you to the museum pages for each specific work where you can find out more about the pieces and the artists.

Hope you enjoy!
Wowza.
ReplyDeleteThat is so out of this world inspiration! I want to see you make some jewelry interpreting each piece. Do you think you could?
(I know you could!)
Enjoy the day, Jen!

Gorgeous pictures, Jen! And they sure came out well without flash too. :-)
