About the Mosaic

16″ x 20″ x .5″ on foamcore board, this mosaic is of a young girl who’s uncle is the former mayor here in Fort Worth. When I was talking to the lady who sold my hummingbird, she showed me this picture and I had to re-create it into a mosaic. It turned out good, and I ended up making a second one for, I believe an auction for the Fort Worth Zoo. I’m not sure, but it was fun to make and the recipient loved the art.

My First Haircut – 18 x 24 Mosaic

My First Haircut – #mosaic made with #recycled candy and drink labels

My First Haircut – 18″ x 24″ Mosaic on .5″ foam core board

This is a portrait of me when I was two years old, getting my first haircut here in Fort Worth, Texas. After I transformed the picture into a mosaic, my dad and sister told me about that day and how much I hated the clippers. I felt it was appropriate to add the original pictures (see below) and how I was not at all happy about the first time experience. But in the end, I got a piece of gum. Good question to ask, is it me or did the Super Bubble gum pieces get smaller? Candy wrappers used besides Super Bubble are Snapple Peach Iced Tea, Yellow Tazo Tea wrappers, Sweet and Low packets and several shades of Tootsie Roll Pop wrappers. Be sure to Pin it to your boards and share with others.
