Sometimes I like to stray from the glass and make something else, and I love experimental collaborative projects like this one. But I promise there will be another mosaic post soon!

Sweat and Tears – part 10 – the finished sculpture
Bykaterattray July 30, 2011

Ok, ok, I said it would be a week! Well it is only Saturday, just in time for a new week tomorrow! The truth is I had finished the sculpture last Tuesday but I have been working on the stand the rest of the week. I found this concrete stand in a reclamation yard and…
