We have this friend (Iris) she lives in our neighborhood and ever since we opened in 2004 she has been sharing her work with us, check out her amazing bottles. If you are in the neighborhood come see them in real life. Her bottle’s remind me of some other work I really love check these out http://www.indigoarts.com/gallery_haiti_young_btls.html

The other day I was out at one of our suppliers picking up tile (of course) and I decided to check out their show room while I waited, the new sicis display was out http://www.sicis.com/beautiful glass tiles, we sell a lot of there stuff its great. What freaked me out was they also sell many pre-made mosaic, also really nice, well made, clever, funny, not what I expected or wanted to see, why because its our competition, ours and every other mosaic artist out there who wants to get commercial work and its a factory… so who makes this stuff?

Maybe I shouldn’t worry, but I am, I lost two jobs last year to a computer that could do the work faster and for less money, not better… but this stuff is pretty damn cool and I know it is not cheap, but it may be cheaper than any artist can do and its …. outsourced no artists were hired to make this stuff…

the pieces above Maria and I made to go on the sculptures at Midtown http://www.greenemosaic.com/index.cfm?&id=49

they look kind of like the fabric inspired pieces made at the sicis factory

talk to me about this….

Tim and the Griffin

Thursday night we were honored to help Tim Celebrate over 1 year of work on his Griffin

the stick was packed with class people (trash to treasure) regulars working and about 25 of Tim’s SCA friends http://www.sca.org/welcome.html Maria and I were a little disapointed there were no costumes, they brought a delious spread of food and beer and entertained us with amazing stories of Halloween’s past and present and future We are hoping to be invited to his next party…

Tara, Tara, Tara
