Tiles
Two Sundays ago I spent a lovely Sunday with my sister and brother-in-law at their pottery in Seagrove, NC: www.whynotpottery.com. Meredith and I made components for jewelry and she also showed me how to make tiles. I came home with some tile blanks which I'm transferring the images from my 28 Giraffes project onto. I am almost finished carving them and can't wait to see them finished. This has been really fun and really different from what I usually do. Here are some pictures of the tiles in progress.
After graduating college with a degree in Fine Arts, I did what every liberal arts graduate does: I got a job in the hotel/restaurant industry. I stayed with that until 1994 when I started my faux finishing/mural painting business with my partner, Tony. We're still at it all these years later and continue to look for new, interesting ways to paint.
Nice!
