The Beginning of the End
The penultimate mosaic in my book – soon to be published ! Whilst watching some incredible footage of a volcano I was inspired to make this one. A scientist was standing on the edge, looking down into a huge boiling pit of lava. As if looking into hell, and yet it was so beautiful. There…

Wow! Hi is such a handsome guy! I love the final video. I had guessed his name to be Zion so was wrong! You must be so proud and sad to have him go.
Thanks Sam – yes sorry to see him go , but at least I have a bit more room in my workshed!

As it played, I couldn’t help thinking it was like a great big 3D puzzle and then I noticed the name of the music! I think Zillion is going to have loads of admirers. If you don’t mind I’d like to put a link in my blog to your post with the video on it. Congrats on a fantastic looking Lion.
Thanks Cheryl
