Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah @rav3n

i finished this today and chucked it up on my FB page and my art page and I’ve had a number of people inbox me wanting to buy. I am totally ok with making more, it’s just the dealing with people that sends my anxiety sky high. I hadn’t even said it was for sale yet, so they are asking for a price which I hate saying. Urgh. Sorry

spikey may did help @Jynx

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow just wanted to say I am in awe of your talent hon. It must be overwhelming people messaging you all the time but I don't blame them hon. You really do have a gift.

Hey @Snowie 👋

im having a arty work day. Got some orders to do. I don’t feel the best today, but pushing through.

what are you up to today?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Pushing through when we don't feel like it shows how much strength you have @Bow

Hopefully making art helps a little. Do you have many orders to do before you go away?

That must be coming up soon. Are you getting excited or is D?

Not up to much today. Just been doing some things around the house. Will watch the Melb Cup. Only time I ever watch horse racing.

Re: My Mosaic

Not too many at the moment @Snowie i think I’ve done all the ones that have been paid for. I hate asking, but I really do need to ask people to pay up front before I start. The amount of pieces that I have done and then been ghosted! Especially if it is a custom pieces and I wouldn’t be able to sell.
I had a lady contactme via FB market place, wanted 5 pieces, said she would pay last night and didn’t. I did the writing for them yesterday but not going to do anymore until she pays.

My big nativity piece that I finished yesterday is going to a lovely friend in Alice Springs. Her hubby contacted me without her knowing and is buying it for her. Had to go and cut up a box in the garage cause it’s too big for my usual postage boxes. So I’m in the process of making a couple more of them cause a local lady from church wants one too.

we have a few more markets before we go away.


yep we are all getting excited. We fly out on the 18th December. 43 days! We have most things organised, but we have a heap of stuff around the house to do so it’s neat and tidy for our house sitters.
Our sitters are a young German couple. They are lovely. I want to put together a little Christmas stocking for them. Trying to think of some small aussie themed items. Think I’ll get like a pair of aussie socks. An Aussie themed Christmas decoration, hopefully with the year on it… or maybe I’ll just paint something 🙂

what time is the cup?? I always miss it!
