This
is my latest in the series of small, portable and affordable
vignettes. Be sure to take a peek at some of the framing
options a professional frame shop can offer to set off
the texture and color of a mosaic.
Dozens
of beautiful lizards, including Florida's green anoles,
hang on the window screens of our house. This gives interesting
underbelly views and many continuously renewing acrobatic
poses.
In
addition to the 3 yellow-tan marbles, the background contains
a sprinkle of gold leaf smalti tiles that sparkle as the
sun does while it shines through the windows and warm these
wonderful little creatures.
