Ocean-Inspired Glass Vases and Sculptures Capture the Beauty of Cascading Waves

Santa Cruz, California-based husband and wife Paul DeSomma and Marsha Blaker are impressive glass artists individually, but the stunning pieces they produce as a duo blow us away with the breathtaking force of a tidal wave. Working mainly with hot glass, the pair create gorgeous, ocean-inspired glass sculptures that mimic the grace and motion of cascading waves.

Inspired by their love of nature and the sea, Blaker and DeSomma painstakingly recreate spectacular watery elements, from gradient shades of cerulean and glistening surfaces that catch the light, to incredibly realistic bubbles and white crystallizations of foam among smooth ripples. Whether in the form of an avant-garde vase or a solid sculpture of a surging wave, each splendid work of art embodies the true beauty of the ocean.
