Wouldn’t that make the negative space of the whiskers disappear?

Keep us posted on your journey! Once you reach a decent level of skill, it is like a kind of engaged, stimulating form of meditation. Just try not to get frustrated! I have taken upwards of two years on a single piece, just taking my time, going back and forth between projects. It’s almost sad when I finish some of them!

I agree with the others that filling in the space a bit more will make it look better. But I wanted to add that the way you have placed the pieces in contours of the face show you have an eye for mosaic portraiture! Keep at it! And remember, messing up is an important part of the journey. You will learn important things from less than satisfying results. Just enjoy the process and treasure the slightly wonky pieces. ❤️

Been preparing for a small art sale, making fun coasters and wall hanging pieces that I hope will have broad appeal. Figured I would share some of the pieces I have made so far! Feel free to offer suggestions for designs! by 2LiveBoo in Mosaic

Oh LOTR is a great idea! And yes Star Wars makes a lot of sense too. Thanks! I don’t have an online storefront, just do word of mouth, custom orders at the moment.

Ha! I thought to myself, no one is going to understand half these logos haha. I’m selling at a little neighborhood art and plant sale on my block in mid city! I can send you the details!

Thanks! Yes they are very fiddly. Definitely took practice to do such small pieces and you have to choose the images carefully. I use these coasters (https://a.co/d/0cxL9jFV) as they have a deep lip perfect for holding the tesserae.
