Welcome to my blog! I want to challenge myself to making a new mosaic every week, and I'll post my progress and results. Also I am redesigning my studio and will post pictures of whatever (if any) progress I make. Thank you for visiting and come back again!

Tuberous Begonia in Tempered Glass
I decided to try another tempered glass mosaic. This is a photo of a tuberous Begonia grown by Paul Carlisle, famous tuberous grower. I glued the photo to the substrate and then used Mac glue to affix the tempered glass pieces. I find epoxy is just so messy so I tried this method instead. So far, so good. Today I plan to grout though I have no idea what color to use. Maybe charcoal.
And below is a picture taken last weekend of a real tuberous Begonia grown by Paul Carlisle. Maybe I should use this photo instead.
It's going to be hot here in Santa Barbara today (78°) so I may not get to grouting. I like to grout outside to keep the mess under control.
