To follow up on the pics that I wanted to post with the Dragonfly mosaic post..... This is a landscape mosaic made with glass beads, porcelain and ceramic tiles, lots of broken pottery and a few pieces of mirrors and marbles.
This mosaic is in a stairwell and thereby hard to photograph. I did the best to get some overall coverage, but it really is ok to focus on the details since it is difficult to take in 8 feet by 17 feet. As there really isn't a good vantage point to absorb the entire picture, I will not tire looking at it as I pass! :-)
A close up of the autumn foliage!
The Mighty Oak with a couple of leaning white birch is in a forest of evergreen boughs and a variety of different maples' leaves alongside a roaring brook. He stands beside a flowering bush planter that is perched on the stone wall soaking up the colors of Autumn.
The base of the Mighty Oak stands beside a whirling pool of sparkling water!
A bit closer look at the planter seated on the stonewall beside the creeping rose bushes.
One of my favorite details is the swirls and curls of the water as it waves and twinkles beside walled off forest.
Perspective makes a big difference when viewing a mosaic. I tried to show that by choosing some pictures that were from a distance and a few close ups.
