I gather references from photographic images, including aerial and drone photography, but the resulting colors and patterns are more akin to the sun-dappled scenes of impressionist paintings. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy distilling the splendor and monumentality of nature into one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted art objects, I hope to spark fond recollections of time spent in nature: trips to a national park, a walk in the woods, or a spring day in a garden or meadow in full bloom. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuch in the way that beaches, mountains, and landscapes are eroded over time by wind and water, the surface of each piece is treated for a smooth, matte finish. Some are carved to reveal the translucent interior below the colorful surface. The resulting textures confound perceptions of glass as a sleek, glossy material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faso-user-p\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-------------------\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_28cEs\" data-hook=\"description\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eAnything we need to know?\u003c\/em\u003e  Do you need a gift note included in the package - Do you need us to delay shipping - If it is a gift, what is the occasion so we can select the appropriate wrapping paper.
