Big Lumpy Toad!

Here's that big lumpy Western Toad. I named him Takashi. I doubt it will stick, but he looked sort of sumo style when we were tiling him. He may well be my favorite. He came in as number 5, and that's my lucky number.

Finishing the Frog~

Here's the finished frog, save for the staining of the rock. Still waiting for the city to approve stain samples.

Finally starting the Malibu Legacy Park mosaics!

I haven't said peep about this project for the longest time because I never knew if it was really going to happen. After months of negotiating, I finally have a sculpture to mosaic! This is the first of eight sculptures that will eventually be placed in the new Malibu Legacy Park in Malibu, California! None of the animals will weigh less than 5,000 pounds, and they will all be completely covered with my handmade mosaics. So here is my new workplace. A loud cement-fabrication-plant's open-air shed. It kind of sounds like a dentists office with all the high pitched drilling going on.
