10/15/11 - You can see how the
little birds look like they are drinking from the fountain.
The center bird is a pie air vent thing.
What do you call those?
10/26//2011 - Done
gluing tile!
Even
though the bottom is a plum color, I think I'm going to grout in a
lime green. It will go with the purples and contrast with the
blues. The base I think I will make mostly a cobalt blue with
perhaps veins of mirror. Some red and amber marbles too.
Stopping this project for a few
weeks, a small commission has come in.
This is what I am not doing.
Mosaicing the bottom!
Our helper has to be near
us.

Starting base today.
8/12/11 - Here, instead of
mosaicing the underside, I've colored the grout and just painted it
on. No one sees the bottom anyway and it saves a lot of work.
I've used a plum color.

once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment, while I
was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more
distinguished by that circumstance that I should have been by any
epaulet I could have worn. Henry David Thoreau
