Artist Profile: Dale Chihuly, his Prints and Drawings

American-born Dale Chihuly trained in glass art gaining an MFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. He further received a Fulbright Scholarship and worked at the Murano factory in Venini.(Chihuly.com) Today when he's not creating glass sculptures he dabbles in drawing and painting. His work exudes the spontaneity of a true artist. When drawing he chooses bright colours that contrast well with each other. Meanwhile his shapes are bold and often familiar.
