Object: Alfa Romeo emblem           Commission

Materials: Smalti, Marble and Vitreous Glass Tile

Dimensions: 18" diameter

Method: Direct on mesh and installed on cement backer board

My client, Takis, loves many a quality car, but the Alfa Romeo brand holds an extra special spot in his heart. Admiring the ancient works of his Greek ancestors he asked me to make a mosaic of his favorite emblem.

This was a great opportunity to use a variety of materials. Each was chosen to properly represent the design of the logo as well as to add interest to the overall piece as a mosaic.
