I also am honored and thrilled that you chose Leonardo to post from all the glorious mosaics in the magazine. The comments are delightful and I thank you all for your kind words. Sometimes I feel I am working in a vacuum and this kind of feedback validates my existence.The internet is an amazing thing and it is great that we can share in this way.I have been busy earning a certification to teach mosaics through the Chicago Mosaic School. I urge anyone interested in learning more about mosaics to come there. They bring in the masters in our field from all over he world and the workshops are incredible.<br />Thanks again for your kind recognition<br />LauraUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02206067807261724124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-88821366937556482112009-07-17T19:40:42.586-04:002009-07-17T19:40:42.586-04:00Nancie, spreading the word about Mosaic Art Now is...Nancie, spreading the word about Mosaic Art Now is one of my life's great pleasures these days.

I thank you very much! In addition to some commissions, I am busy this summer giving flight to a seagull, trying to get a lost woman's soul to emerge from a piece of diamond willow, and doing a rendition of Marilyn Monroe. My dad took a pic of her in Korea, and I have been working her over with tesserae. She was a beauty. The piece is 26" x 26". Thanks again for the recognition of "Phoenix Rising".
