though it certainly could be given the fall of snow taking place. This is simply another view of the Kleenex in its box bathed in morning light.

One of my favorite exhibits at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston is the Endless Repeating Twentieth Century Modernism by Josiah McElheny. It was installed in 2007. Over the years, I’ve paused, stared, pondered, reflected before racing on to view whatever show or exhibit I was actually at the museum to see. Oh, how I have admired the beauty, but only recently have I taken the time to photograph what was before me and to learn more about the artist’s intent, as well as about his creative journey. As I learn more, mostly what I am fascinated by is how he uses glassmaking as a storytelling tool.

Via the following PBS link you can read more about McElheny and see a short video of him at work. http://www.pbs.org/art21/artists/josiah-mcelheny

With still shots I wasn’t quite capturing what I wanted to share especially when the icicle began to melt and water flowed so freely. So I decided, for the first time, to try out the video feature on my camera. And while I was tempted to find a tech savvy 10-year old to help me download the video, reorient it, add audio and then upload it into this blog … well, I just plundered along. No awards will I win for the results but it was fun and I hope to keep learning how to expand what I share in words and images.
