Art Talk: I am a Chihuly Groupie
You might be wondering what a Chihuly is. I will tell you... he, Dale Chihuly, is a fabulous glass artist. I adore his work and have decided that I am a Chihuly groupie, meaning that each year I will be going to see his exhibitions at different botanical gardens around the US and world.

My introduction to Chihuly was in 2006. I was living in DC and a group of friends took a road trip to Columbus, Ohio to watch BYU (my alma mater) play volleyball and during the trip we decided to go to the Columbus Botanical garden. I was amazed at the Chihuly exhibition and I have been a fan ever since.

In 2007 I moved from DC to Arizona and the next year there was a Chihuly exhibit at the local botanical garden that I have been a member of since 2010.

Chihuly came back to Arizona in 2012 and I went to the exhibit many times.

In addition to be a great glass artist he is wonderful painter too!

One of my  very favorite thing about Chihuly is that I get to see the glass in amazing gardens!

My brother and sister and I did a family history trip to England and Scotland in May 2019. When I saw that Chihuly was at the Kew Gardens I talked them into stopping at the garden. It was amazing and I think there are now two more Chihuly fans.

**Oklahoma City Museum of Art, 2019**
 
This was a huge surprise. I went to visit my friend in Oklahoma and as I was getting on the plane I said something to another passenger and asked if she was from Oklahoma, she said yes and if it was my first time going, that I should go to the Museum of Art and see the Chihuly there. What?? How did she know I was a Chihuly fan!?!?!? 

The glass ceiling tunnel was fabulous

I don't think there is any way to walk back once you have seen a Chihuly. It's like they say about drinking Colorado River water: Once you do, you will come back.

His work was much less complex when I first saw his art, and it's been really fun to watch the progression of his career. 

I'm not a groupie, but certainly a big fan.  I thank you for sharing your 'groupiness' with us.  I really appreciate it.
