Hey there again mosaic'ers. Here is a sweet stoic kitty kat, perfect for a front stoop. Flat black ceramic plates, combines with a toille floral and insect print for added attraction and zebra print plate for his chest. He is grouted in a pewter colored sanded grout. I always have issues with what to do with the eyeballs. Sometimes I get lucky and am able to find a plate flower print that I can nip-out and use for eyes, other times I simply cut-out a colored plate to shape. Here, I used the tradional colored-glass marble....it seemed to work well :)
Helpful hint: Follow the original form of the statuary. Use these lines as direction for placing your ceramic/glass pieces. Falling out of line sometimes blurs the idea and loses the shape and form you are trying to create and get in an end piece...just a suggestion.
Have fun designing!!
