I'm floored

I love mosaics. At one point in time I was seriously thinking about doing a mosaic restoration course so that I could spend lots of time playing in the dirt with tiny pieces of glass and tile. After a few courses in art however, it was discovered that I lack much natural artistic ability and mosaics require a certain...well... artistic ability. So now I just enjoy looking at mosaics instead. It's a great thing that you can find them all over the world!

This beauty is inside the Dunedin Train station. It is a stunning piece of work. Just to see the train looking ready to go, steam about to pop out of it and chugga-chugga noises squish out of the wheels, makes a heart happy.

I had to tip toe over it. It was just to pretty to walk over.

mosaics are so cool! The ones I think I like the most are when I'm exploring ruins and come across a few tiles that are what is left from something hundreds or thousands of years ago...amazing
