Glass artist Dale Chihuly

Dale Chihuly  I have seen some of his installations at a hotel in Singapore where I was for a family dinner in 2006.
I kept pointing at the ceiling and saying, "Chihuly, Dale Chihuly,"

but everyone was focused on the food and each other, and did not notice what I was pointing at.

Good art can just pass some people by like trash by the wayside.

But if I told them they are worth millions of $$$

maybe their eyes would light up.

People.

Ruth Prawer Jhabvala--I have a volume of her short stories--which I like a great deal.
