When talking about realism in glass it doesn't get better than Gordon Smith. For years Gordon has tirelessly honed his craft. Today he is at the height of his career - making some of the most realistic and biologically accurate compositions ever attempted in glass.
Gordon received early accolades for his realistic strawberries. This is a very fine example featuring a dimensional plant with delicately colored leaves two large blossoms and numerous seed adorned berries in various stages of maturity. The lone specimen grows from a naturalistic ground featuring upset straw with pebbles and sand completing the hyper-realistic scene.
