The Orange Show is a home-turned-shrine dedicated to the favorite fruit of a former Houston resident, Jeff McKissack. He believed that oranges — along with other nutritious foods — could prolong one’s life, so he adorned his home to educate the public. The grimy yet charming structure is now the crown jewel of Houston’s visionary art scene. Inside, paint chips into oblivion, colors glow with life and tiles sprawl out to form health advice and inspirational quotes — with grammatical errors galore.

Sophomore Cassie Friess learns how to create a glass paperweight at Third Degree Burn, a glassblowing establishment, Jan. 5. “I have always wanted to make beautiful crafts and expand my knowledge of different things around me, like glass blowing,” Friess said. “I thought glass blowing would be an amazing opportunity and fun memory.” Friess’ favorite part was watching the glass smoke as it cooled down while she molded it into the right shape. “I never realized the process was so simple,” Friess said.

For the past six years, senior Shale Kennedy has been an avid painter. Kennedy credits her inspiration for her paintings to nature. “I like to take ideas from different types of environments,” Kennedy said. “I also love science and think it affects my paintings. I like to keep things as scientific as possible without taking away from the art.” She believes that painting comes to her naturally, as her grandmother and parents are artists as well.

Sophmore Cassie Friess visits Third Degree Burn, a glassblowing venue located on Delmar Boulevard. It was established in 2002 and is often open to the public. Heating up the glass is one of the first steps in glassblowing. The glass is held into the furnace, so the freshly dipped colors will melt.
