Dale Chihuly Style Sculpture
Students brought plastic bottles to color with permanent markers. Then they cut the bottles into spiral shapes. The bottles will be attached together to create a chandelier reminiscent of Dale Chihuly's glass sculpture works. Check out some of his work at the St. Louis Botanical Gardens or at his website http://www.chihuly.com/exhibitions.aspx.
