Delmo Tarsitano is known for his "earth-life themes",
realistic presentations of salamanders, snakes, spiders and bees.
The grounds, creatures, and delicate flowers of his earth-life
sculptures display complete mastery of the technical aspects of
lampwork. With consummate skill and precision he uses optical cutting
to enhance each lifelike scene. (LH Selman: All about Paperweights.ISBN
