Holsten Galleries newsletter
Greetings! I hope that you and your families are off to a good start in the new year. Since January is one of the darkest months of the year, I have chosen some bright and colorful glass sculptures to share with you this month. I look forward to hearing from you with any comments and questions that you might have. Enjoy! |
"The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls." – Pablo Picasso |

Maui Truly a classic piece by the maestro, "Maui" combines all of Lino’s signature elements: beautiful form, vibrant colors, intricate surface engraving, bold cane work. |

|
Brainy Red Lurch This playful piece by Stephen Powell testifies to the artist’s absolute mastery of form, color palette and the murine technique. |
Rocky Coast Many of you are already familiar with the glass panels of Connecticut artist Dorothy Hafner. I love the abstract landscape quality of this piece which can be shown as is or wall mounted. |

|
Suspended in Dreams I love the narrative quality of this new piece by Richard Jolley. The human head captured in a state of repose seems to be flying off into the dream world on a creature which is perhaps half bird/half angel. |
Thank you as always for taking a few moments to enjoy some of the finest glass art in the world! I hope you have enjoyed it. Warm wishes, Kenn Holsten |
