Martha Jarvis Jackson is Glass Art
When I think of art I think of unique work from a person that believes that what they do is going to turn heads. I don’t think of basic art such as self portrait by pencil or paintings of a basket of fruit. I think of art that I never seen before or that looks difficult to accomplish. When I think of art I think of glass art, because it’s unique, turn heads, not basic, and difficult to accomplish.
Glass art seems like the hardest work of art to accomplish. As an “Urbanflypr” employee I had to visit Martha Jackson Jarvis Studio for research about the creative process for glass art, and during the visit she explain the past work she done. The work she had done was all glass art, and she explained that it took months to accomplish. One of the hardest pieces of glass art she had to do was the moral for Anacostia Station, which she named, “The river spirits of Anacostia.” This was a piece of glass art that she said took years to accomplish. This whole moral surround Anacostia Station in a visual acquits life standpoint and gives a nice visual presentation for Anacostia Station. “The river spirits of Anacostia” was unique because it visualized fishes made from glass, It turned heads because it was made to give a visual presentation for Anacostia Station, it wasn’t a basic piece of art work, and it took years to finish making it difficult to accomplish.
In conclusion glass art defines my definition of what art is because I like to be amazed by an artist, and when I seen the work that Martha Jackson Jarvis did I was amazed. Glass art is hands down the most vivid piece of art I have ever seen and I can’t wait until I see more. This is Darren Timothy McIntyre Jr and I approve this message.
