This past Saturday I hosted an art party in the Murphy studio for my good friend Keather who is getting married to her love Robert on the solstice this year. Friends and family gathered to make whimsical leaf-shaped tile mosaics made of mirror and green tile. The leaves are going to be used as decorations for the wedding and then later as a permanent art piece in Keather and Robert’s home. A big thanks to Niki and Lynday for providing the materials, tools, and leadership.

 

Niki prepares the mirror. Making the tiles.

Niki prepares the mirror by breaking it safely under a towel. The gals meticulously place mirrored pieces on leaf shaped plexiglass. Niki will grout the leaves after the tiles set.
