| What a way to come out of a slump!! Double click, then there's an enlarger button - almost like being there to see it in person. Lots of stuff I didn't see via e-mail. This is fabulous. Such interest in each block, w/keep the eye traveling, stopping to gaze, etc. W/keep me busy for awhile just to explore each block. Wonderful piece, GYPSIE. |

| Thank you all so much........MOST everything I do is NOT thought-out....I never know how something will end till it's done..........I can't help it. I've never been organized, only at my real job where it is a must. I have been in a funk for a bit, not inspired.....thought I might be through with mosaicing because I was not inspired to do a dang thing.......but finally the juices started flowing again...........this piece took me over a week..it's so simple and I could have gotten it done sooner..but, stopping and starting, working, domestic crap, happily entertaining my grandson, etc...too tired to work at night, etc. and always scrounging to find "the next thing " to slap on this.....if I was organized and planned out...hmmmmm.....anyway..this is on a metal piece that I bought at Hobby Lobby! On sale......it might go into the gallery that I take things periodically...pricing is hard for me..I do not know how to price anything...............but I would be happy keeping this too....as you can see, enough STUFF is never enough Stuff...for me...........I sincerely appreciate all of your kind compliments.....it also helps pushing me out of the dark hole I was in! |

| Beautiful! I like the turquoise in there. How large is this piece? What is it in/on? Oh heck, can you spill your guts about this wonderful piece? |
