Daily Art Muse strikes again. I thank you for helping to provide me content and showing us all the work of Tim Tate. The glass studio and school that he has co-founded has been profiled here…The Washington Glass School. This selection of Tim’s work warms my heart so much. There are little pie slices and cake slices and cupcakes enclosed in lovely blown glass cake displays. I make beads in those shapes and when I see someone as talented as Tim take on such sweet treats in a larger size I can’t help but be mesmerized. These pieces and all of his other work are fabulous. Go see for yourself…
