The First Pair of Eyes I created was named Green Eyes.
She was inspired by a picture found a long time ago in a French Magazine.
Green Eyes flew to Dubai in 2013, and went from there to Pakistan.
in 2014, I created Mariam and Miriam based on the same image.

Marian flew with me to France in June 2014. She is now in Londinieres, a small town of Normandy.

Miriam won a 1st Prize at the Rudd Center for the Art Show in August 2014.

In April 2015, I started to work on 2 smaller versions of the 2 Green eyes sisters, They will fly with me to France next July, with the Pomegranate Tree and an other secret piece. They are Reverse Method built on a mesh.

These 2 Sisters are mirror images of each other. One of them has a Red Head Scarf and a Blue Veil, these colours are reversed on her sister.

Earlier this year, I was contacted by Amarjeet Singh from India, asking me if he could inspire himself from the original green eye to create a mosaic of his own. I was pleased that he was kind enough to ask. He could have simply done it without asking me. that was a very positive point for him. I told him to go ahead.
On June 6, 2015, Amarjeet sent me a picture of his excellent work.

So now we have a total of 6 Green Eyes mosaics, based on the same original design, of different size and different colours.
One is in Pakistan, one is in Londinieres, France, one is in Dothan, Alabama, USA. 2 will soon be in France, one is in New Delhi, India...
So I had the idea of releasing the original design for any person interested to try to create another Green Eyes mosaic. I have used open source softwares for years, freely, because people released the result of their work for free on the net. Now I am doing the same with green eyes.
Here is the original design of the 2011 Green Eyes.
Please use it to create your own version of her. You do not have to respect the original colours. You can modify her. It would be nice to mention me when you publish your work, but you do not even have to. I will create a private Facebook page for all those of you who decide to create a Green eyes mosaic, who would like to publicize their work.
I hope to help lots of you realize how creative you can be and that you will enjoy becoming part of the great international community of mosaicists !
