“The chief enemy of creativity is good sense.” ― Pablo Picasso
I still continue to try my hand at mosaics. Below are my last two works.
This one I call Nativity. It is my idea of a Nativity scene and I love it. I made it out pieces of a broken cookie jar and a broken mug. It is 11.5 x 8 inches.
“Creativity takes courage. ” ― Henri Matisse
This one I named Butterflies and Flowers. It is 24 x 20 inches. I made it using different glass stones that I got at the 99 cent store. I had originally named it Butterflies, but when I was done a friend came over and when he saw it he asked: Are those butterflies or flowers?
“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.”
― Albert Einstein

I always like to encourage budding mosaic artists. You have a great start, and there are lots of mosaics on the web to look at for further inspiration. Everyone is creative, I believe, but must be unafraid to make mistakes in order to get the creative work done. More work, done mindfully, equals more mastery. I hope to see more of your mosaics in the near future.
