Grouted fifth mosaic for children's book

 

I've been busy prepping the wedi board for the book mosaics, so haven't grouted in several days, but finally got to grout another one!  I love the process of grouting and seeing how the mosaic changes, becomes cohesive and complete, and even softens the mosaic.  Here is a detail from this mosaic, before and after grouting.

Progress on book mosaic #8

I'm getting close to being done with this mosaic! I hope to be finished by this weekend. Here is a small, small bit of the entire mosaic. It's probably about 6x7". I had a lot of fun putting in the millefiori, making it much more playful than if there was none. The pink millefiori on the pillow was hand made and given to me by Gila Rayberg quite awhile ago, and I'm happy I finally found the perfect use for it. Thanks, Gila! And the millefiori on the blanket I just bought from Martin Cheek at the SAMA conference. They are little moons, but work perfectly for the edge of the blanket. The chair was such a challenge for me to make it appear 3D with just one color of glass, but I'm happy with it! I will post again once I finish this mosaic, which will be very, very soon, woo hoo!
