Garden Shrine Or Altar Mosaic
Featuring a riot of daisy flowers this Garden Shrine has a place for a small candle; the flame would reflect off the blue bottle glass (which has been backed with foil to make it especially shiny).
It could be propped in a corner of a garden to give added interest, or as part of a meditation / yoga corner.

Mavis
Mavis is a life-size figure made of recycled materials, including birds in her beer bottle top hair.
I created her body shape in wire and cement, so she is hollow inside.
for fun
Snail Totem Pole
Created as a way to use up left-over tile adhesive and ceramic scraps, this totem pole has been created over a few years.
The star was made on an inflatable toy, and is covered with mirror glass.
The Snail structure was made in a class with Tamara Froud, with this purpose in mind.
The ball was made onto a polystyrene ball.
The base was made at a BAMM class with Sheri Warner Hunter.

Thistles
Part of the improvement of the Crieff High Street. The original 4 x 4 square glass tiles in the larger squares were falling apart. I was asked if I could replace them with something, and so proposed the thistles.
