Description
My thought here was an attempt in showing how very fragile life can be.....whether a reptile or human things can change in a split second, in the blink of an eye.....I captured these three lizards in a clear pyrex dish after my husband brought them in....they came out early in the season and then we had a freeze and they were not even moving....I left them in the house for a few hours to warm them, then had my husband turn them loose out by the wood pile (their favorite hang out)....the glass vase here has been edited in but the lizards are just as I captured them; I am always in awe at their intricate design and color.....

YOu are so good at everything that I have seen that you do. That is not a very creative way to express myself - but I just had to let you know how I feel.

What a unique, gorgeous and deeply meaningful work! I love the contrast between the lizards and the glass, and the sense of fragility and wonder. Outstanding and very appealing work!
