Even at Goodwill I am sometimes shunned. I am also a story telling mosaicist. The story may not be totally clear to the audience without a statement, but once the statement and the piece of art are put together, the entire piece falls into place. I also find myself spending weekends looking for smaller unique glass containers to hold my "tesserae" as well as "icons" and other unique pieces to add to my ever growing collection of beads, buttons, odd, ends, and this and thats. I find also lots of inspirations in children's game boards and coloring books. Being a spiritual being, I too look for things that inspire me spiritually, or that enlighten me. I am inspired by your little blog, and just signed up as a new member to read it often, and hope that others will check out my blog after connecting together here. You have a great sense of unique style in your mosaics, and that , to me, is what makes them so special. <br /><br />While I am here, I would like to mention that I just invested in a new cutting tool for chine/ tiles/ dishes. I will do a blog on the tool, what it does, and show some cuts. It is just amazing. You may have it. It is a glass/ porcelain cutter (wheeled/ unoiled) on one side, and a breaker on the flip side. also, it comes with a hack saw blade to cut fine shapes into the dishes or tiles as you desire. I will blog this then post it to your wall. I am very excited that I found your blog, and I look forward to talking to you more in the near future.<br /><br />Spiritual peace and much happiness.<br /><br />Rayna Clark<br />mosaic artist/ authorAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12144731365717720276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3526457847657044140.post-7658477125568752562011-08-26T09:05:58.481-07:002011-08-26T09:05:58.481-07:00Lovely post.Lovely post.Lonnie Hanzonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275248866024381916noreply@blogger.com
