We're All Ears-August Inspiration


Installation art of Gabriel Dawe
 Our inspiration for this month is installation art of Gabriel Dawe.

Do you remember doing those string art projects at summer camp? This installation art takes that idea to the extreme.  It is created with miles of sewing thread wound around hooks or nails on wood.  These airy textile sculptures transform a dull place into a living rainbow.  Our challenge was to pick the inspiration photo that inspires us from this website and to tell what inspires us about this amazing art installation.  

Blue Glass Globe Earrings by Bay Moon Design

I am inspired by the vertical lines in the installation and the royal blue color.  The lines in the installation brought to mind some hand blown glass globes that I had.  They have white lines that swirl around them and they are the beautiful blue found in a section of the art inspiration.  I added swarovski crystals because they have lots of lines in them also. My blue glass globe earrings have sterling silver earwires and are perfect for a formal ocassion.  They are available in my online store for purchase HERE.
