We recently installed this custom Twig Chandelier in a Sacramento dining room. It had a very special, personal touch - an oak leaf modeled from the tree she planted by seed in her front yard!
Yesterday I saw the Artstock Sculpture Exhibition with Large Format Paintings featuring Valley Sculpture Artists at High Hand in Loomis, CA and was very impressed! Sue Anne Foster did and incredible job integrating art with the ambiance of the historic fruit packing shed. It will be there from Oct 1 to Nov 7. Check it out!
"The pieces arrived safely and on time. They installed beautifully and the client is pleased." Trish Garrett Fox, Fine Art Matters Another installation complete - yeah!
Co-Owner of Nicholson Blown Glass since 1979. Rick studied glass at the University of Southern California and was a TA at Pilchuck Glass School for Dale Chihuly and Fritz Dreisbach in 1981.
I left my photographer position at the USC in 1979 to freelance and create designs on Rick’s clay forms. We were married the same year, and our artistic collaboration began. By 1982, we concentrated on glassblowing and moved to nine acres in Auburn, California where we raised two daughters, now in college.
Our works involve figurative sculpture, sculptural lighting, and multiple piece wall and ceiling installations. Recent projects include a 10-piece wall for the BMI lobby in New York City; two wall installations for the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Shenzhen, China; a 21-piece wall installation for the lobby of Weil, Gotschal and Manges International Law Firm in Dallas, Texas; a 17- piece wall installation for Kaiser Hospital in Roseville, California; multiple glass and steel sculptures for M Resort in Henderson, NV and two Torsos for the 4 Points Hotel in Guangzhou, China. While Rick does the hand blown work, I am the color and design part of our collaboration.
