| 531. Rick and Janet Nicholson (20th Century)
A "Wave" bowl or platter, this piece combines an asymmetrical design which is distinguished by bold opaque, semi-translucent, and translucent colors of aqua, pink and white. The colors contrast with clear crystal. The Nicholsons elliptically shaped forms are sometimes curled over at the edges, conveying the flow and fluidity of molten glass. Both artists studied at the Pilchuck School with master glass artists Dale Chihuly, Fritz Dreisbach, Richard Marquis and Therman Statom. The Nicholson's have been featured on PBS, and the Sierra Heritage Magazine. Exhibitions and collections include the Crocker Art Museum, Sacramento, CA; the Governors Mansion, Sacramento, CA; Hewlett Packard, Sacramento, CA; Los Angeles International Airport; Oakland Museum Collectors Gallery, CA; and The White House Christmas Ornament Collection, Washington, DC. 350/550 Sold $241.50 back to catalog |
