        Quote: "What if I fall? Oh, but what if you fly!" - Erin Hanson

        Quote begins on left side and finishes on right, author noted on top.

        Artist Statement: Poetry exists within the hearts of young and old, and in the case of this poet, a wise heart in young form. Erin's works uplift just like the bluebird's wings in Take Off! - setting sights on the air and focusing on the positive possibilities: "There is freedom waiting for you, On the breezes of the sky, And you ask, 'What if I fall?' Oh, but my darling, What if you fly?"

        About Houston Llew: In a dilapidated Atlanta garage, Houston toiled for months on “ramen and beer” to overcome unemployment and create the positivity of his Spiritiles. Using vitreous enamel from ancient Mesopotamia, Houston kiln fires his glass-on-copper images then cools them on a planchet to form the glass on all sides of the frame. The natural cracks which form during that manipulation add a charm loved by Mesopotamian royalty.

        How to display: Spiritiles can be displayed freestanding (they look especially impactful in groups) or hung (from their pre-drilled and angled holes on the back). They even withstand high humidity, direct sun, and covered outdoor environments (we recommend taking them inside during cold winter weather). A lint-free cloth sprayed with glass cleaner is all you need to clean these art works.
