The final days of “swanning” were long and arduous, day became night and night became day, I was losing sight of reality, I wondered if there was life outside my shed! I emerged hungry and tired, in need of refreshment… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… A name has chosen by my sponsor – “Odile” – The Black Swan from…
A lively summer workshop and tour
Last weekend was great! I had a lively group who came to the workshop at Wells museum! This included my two youngest kids and friends. Most only stayed for Saturday, but one student did both days, so on Sunday she came to my workshed. Pictures of the group and their mosaics are on the workshop…
Gathering Darkness
I collected another new piece of work from my framers yesterday. This is “Gathering Darkness”. It takes the idea from my Flocked series – How the Sky Becomes Blue and The Birds Who Bring the Dusk (see mosaics here) into the night. It was also inspired by staring at Deep Sunset through the Woods (see mosaic here)…

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!
Thank you for dropping by my blog and letting me know about the video. I’ve always admired mosaics, but have never seen one made, so the video was fascinating and fun. 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
