RAINFOREST GRAAL

by Marie Simberg-Hoglund and Ola Hoglund
( Whyanbeel Valley, Tropical North Queensland )

RAINFOREST GRAAL ONE-OF-A-KIND

RAINFOREST GRAAL ONE-OF-A-KIND

This is a recent addition to our Rainforest Graal Collection. Each individual piece signifies a connection to the landscape, immersing you in a visual impression of the "Forest of Rain" captured in a three-dimensional form. The Graal technique holds the vivid colours and striking decorations at the centre of each piece, suspended in several layers of thick crystal glass. My husband and I work together on each hand-blown piece, which is brought to life by the captivating reflections of light and depths of shade working through the layers.

Beautiful graal
by: Jill

Marie, what a beautiful piece! Having watched you and Ola at work I know how much physical effort goes into your artwork - and you make it look so easy!

Perhaps one day you might have time to send me an article about the graal technique so that I can post it on the website? I am sure that people would like to learn how it is done.



UP-DATE: Thanks very much, Marie. Done - see http://www.art-in-tropical-australia.com/graal-glass.html
