Look at these amazing pics taken at the Museum of Glass in Tacoma today!

These are phenomenal. Were these pieces all made by the same artist or by different artists?

The Peabody Museum of Natural History in Cambridge, MA (part of Harvard University) has (haven't been there in over 40 years but I assume the exhibit still exists) an exhibit of glass flowers. They were all botanically correct and he didn't share his methods and no one was able discover his secrets. Your first photo reminded me of it.

I would guess that these gorgeous creations were created by different individuals.

i've seen large installations of works by the artist that did the 3rd picture. Chihuly. i'm not sure most of the display is still there but it was interesting to see (at the Fred Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids, MI).

I just found out that all of these glass creations were made by Chihuly!
