Description

Rainbow Waterfalls
Abstract Glass Motivational Artwork by Omashte

I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. ~Lao Tzu

I see a Rainbow Waterfall of color and light and liquid glass.
I really enjoy the way that the glass is fluid and just seems to melt across the surface. I see smiling lines that make a nice pleasant feeling to the overall piece.
This is a photograph of a round glass ornament. It was taken with a Macro lens and is a very small section of the overall object. I am exploring hand blown glass at a macro level in the hopes of creating fine art from very small pieces of glass.
All of the colors and shapes are created from hot glass. None of these images are created from anything other than hand blown glass objects. I am removing visible specks of dust in Photoshop to present a cleaner look but the overall image is exactly what I am seeing through my camera lens.
The colors are vivid and alive due to the way that I am illuminating the glass art as I am taking the picture. In a way I am photographing the light as it passes through the object. Creating art from light or art from glass art? Either way I see creating art from life and from existing art.
I have been a professional photographer for many years but it is only in the last couple of months that I have been photographing glass at any level. It is such an exciting experience to discover these images. I almost feel like an archeologist as I explore a small hidden word and reveal the treasures within.
