And I'm back in the game! Ran away to sea for a while, but now I'm back and all fired up. Mainly to stop me missing Fiji. And Fiji time - what's with all this time keeping business?! :peace:

I haven't had a camera or a paintbrush in my hand for a while now, and it's starting to get to me. It's funny, I never realised just how therapeutic I find having a creative outlet until recently. Maybe that's why I've been dreaming a lot lately, all of them hazy and surreal and beautiful. Much like these...

Hi Jahamara

I always use mdf for my backing boards as it's easy for me to get and yes they are heavy. I use d-rings to hang the mosaics and each d-ring has two screw holes in it. They seem to hold quite well that way.

All my mosaics are designed for indoors as I don't think that mdf holds up very well outdoors over time. It can swell if moisture gets inside and then the tiles will pop off. To counteract this, I seal all sides of the board (6) with a mixture of pva glue (white craft glue) and water. I do this several times before I start mosaicing.

I wish your mum luck with her mosaicing.

yea no problem, It's an awesome picture. It does have more of a hue of green but who cares. I just love the title because of the Sting song Fields of Gold. It is a very romantic concept. It's beautiful
