Aloha All,

Been busy and not visiting enough. Working away on commissions & such. New work in mosaics that a amateur tile monkey can install - they just look spooky.

Idea is interlocking ovals - that make a pattern of shields & spears - polynesia-afro. Actually almost had a chance for it to find its premier home at the new Trader Vic's restaurant at LA LIVE. almost, I said, darnit. They salvaged wood for the new restaurant bar from the old Trader Vic's in Tokyo & elsewhere.
B e a u t i f u l.

Just shields & spears!

Shifting colorway for a big wall

smallest tiles are about 3/8" for reference. Other mosaic image is in the same vibe, another similar design having a shot at ranch/international modern aesthetic (below).

Interested - please drop me a line - looking for feedback - maybe a project or two to help them find a ohana or home to be part of.

the mosaics are all handglazed & handmade - coming with a mesh (patented) in the clay itself. they fit together like leggoes.
