Finished the apple branch mosaic!

The belle fleur apple branch mosaic is complete! I've cut it up and layered the pieces in a plastic tub for a later installation. Now onto the fifth mosaic in the Bellflower series: the actual bell flower. I went with a close up of a cluster of the pretty blue flowers on a rocky cliff. Pictures soon!

Workin' on an apple branch...

Here is a detail from the fourth panel out of five. It is of the belle fleur apple, a whole branch of them. I thought having an all-blue background was going to make this one faster to complete. I was wrong. It's actually quite detailed. I also thought this one might turn out a tad ho-hum but the colors are really popping on the apples, so I'm glad.
