Artist's Comments

I did a WIP of this mini mosaic. I should copy and paste it in a journal entree to have it here.

Size 2.5X3.5 inches.

I used the same tools as before; tooth pick, clear nail enamel, and paper flecks. The only difference is that I used a black sharpie for the background, and had to improvise the color of the vase with acrylic ink on paper rather then the magazine color I usually use. The vase has a little more chroma then I wanted it to.

You can't see the effect in the scan, but I had a little happy accident with this one. I had used the more expensive nail enamel, It dried quick to a high gloss. The little paper pieces that were pressed in gave the black the look of real grout. I used less by accident on the vase making this more flat. I got a lot of depth out of this. Also the 3 top coats made the surface look like glass.

I love mosaic art!
Paper mosaics always look so cool (and they're easier than glass or stone)

Speaking of which, pebble mosaics have become really popular and some are incredibly BADASS!
You should check them out :)

Thanks! sorry it's taken me awhile to reply. I've had my head up my butt of late. :(

I will certainly check those pebble mosaics out. I love anything mosaic! In fact I made these mini paper pieces because I wanted to do one that bad and was broke. LOL!
