Pebble Tree

 

For Pebble Tree I played with materials cruder than the polished glass, smalti or ceramics tesserae most mosaicists use. River pebbles, wood looking ceramics and roughly cut  or tumbled stones. 

 

The result is remarkable. The light caught by the pebbles beautifully mimics the foliage of a tree under the caress of the wind.

 

Pebble tree's is 24 x 36” (66 x 99 cm), and mounted in a steel frame.
