Ep. 37 IMPULSE MOSAIC PROJECTS, New tesserae, Organizing!
Good grief, I finally tidy up my mosaic studio enough to take down a folding table I set up for a project in 2019! Here's the mosaic project being picked up by the client: [ Ссылка ] Still stuff everywhere, but an improvement!
Then I start nipping down some donated ceramic pieces for the "Shelter in Place" (working title) mosaic. I picked up some asphalt chunks from my walks in the neighborhood and add it to the area around the bubble on my mosaic using black tinted thinset.
My nephew visits and makes some headway on his owl mosaic!
I tackle the smalti that is hidden in boxes in my garage. I try out SPARCO containers to store it in and get them all filled. I still have more smalti, so I now know which ones I will need to order to hold the rest! Another big improvement! Then I go a little label crazy and take the organization up a notch!
Next I grout a fun and easy no cut heart mosaic using black sanded grout. It's a super sparkler in the sun!
Then I add a layer of thinset to the sides of the crane mosaic to cover the mesh completely. 18 hours later I take a sanding stone to it and smooth it out. After about three days I will be able to paint it.
And I start a beaded butterfly mosaic project using black Apoxie Sculpt and a wooden shape purchased at a craft store. I love quick and (filler projects) easy mosaic projects like this in between bigger works to give my brain a break and enjoy the process.
