Big bell!

My son likes this one but he is a lover of the red, yellow and orange peppers and he loves his mom!

Texture and quietude


These 10 pieces were finished and shipped to Boston on Wednesday! The spiral is made of coral and turquoise, it's 4 x 2 the white is a mixture of very old plates with lots of crazing.

Draw your veggies!


Frantically finishing one project whilst designing 2 more. Drawing feels like a relaxing break from mosaic.

Thinking and drawing

I am doing a lot of sketching right now of a piece I am going to do with children for the Saint Paul library which got me looking at some older work. This one is about my daughters, I was never very satisfied with the way it came out but I like it better from afar, I find I like my work better in photos then in real life I am not sure why this is and I am not sure that it's a good thing either. I am a pretty harsh critic of my own work but I find distance often helps my feelings towards a piece.
