I am so happy to see Gene recognized for his unique work. He is not seeking publicity; he is very humble and enjoys doing his creations for his own satisfaction. His projects take time but he is relaxed and not in a hurry.

Had the privilege of meeting him today when we stopped by to have a look at his work. Not only is he immensely gifted & skilled, he is warm, open, funny & just delightful! He invited my husband & me to explore his backyard & take some pictures. I'm just blown away by what he's accomplished - and is continuing to expand. Bravo, Gene! And thank you for being such a special person!

Gene Dillard is to glass mosaic sculpture as Annie Dillard is to mystical fiction though not related to each other by blood. Only by art (which comes from the Latin, “Ars,” meaning to join or attach). So proud to be able to call this exceptional human being my friend. ❤

How wonderfully beautiful. What a neat legacy to leave the world. It IS art sir. And the best form of it. The free style unrestricted and unrestrained way you do the designs and the Freeform nature is just heartwarming and breathtaking!

4:30 every so often you'll find one of these people and they are just the most Human of people; this man could have each and every one of his ancestors looking over at him and probably all of them would approve. Edit: _and_ he doesn't let his hobby become a job; fantastic man.
