Lovely Mosaics, Part TWO

"Pinwheel Flowers"


Dragon Table Top
All of these lovely mosaics are by artist Janina, who graciously agreed for their use here. She woke up one morning, while living in Costa Rica, and felt like mosaic-ing! She had no training... what an inspiration!

My sister and I have talked about mosaic-ing for a while now, and clearly I am getting the mosaic fever! I like the idea of sea shells in them, too.


Isn't the mosaic with the Toucan "too cute"? I do think the hummingbird and butterflies are my favorites in this group, and the dragon--too cool!

If the rains hold off, Mr. Bliss and I will hit the ocean after dinner: we have salmon marinating in lime, soy sauce, ginger, cracked black pepper and sea salt.

And orange blossom honey, lest I forget. ;)

Any favorite summer dishes out there? Any creative projects brewing?

Enjoy!!!

  2. These are so beautiful. I fell in love with mosaics when I was in Spain and saw the work of Gaudi- his stuff is out of the world!

  6. These are great..., and for some reason I always like it when artist are self taught..., it just shows that you can do it, no matter what.
