Baobab of Life

The tree of life is a common motif in various world religions, mythologies, and philosophies. It alludes to the interconnection of all life on our planet. The term tree of life may also be used as a synonym for sacred tree. 

I have made many mosaic trees of life, and you can see some of them on a dedicated page of my mosaicblues web site. 

The Mosaicblues Trees of Life

I am presently working on 2 more of them. 

• "Le Grenadier" is a bigger version of my Pomegranate Tree presently displayed in my studio in France. It is almost exclusively made of glass tiles. 

• "Baobab of Life" is a worked commissioned by a collector and friend of mine from Dothan. 

The Baobab of Life.

It includes my three usual materials : Stone, Glass and Ceramics. 

Details of the Roots

Both pieces should be available in December.

And Grenadier would make an amazing Christmas Present...

I am a modern mosaic artist with a deep admiration for ancient Greek, Roman and Byzantine Arts. You can see my own mosaics on my site at mosaicblues.

Pomegranates, le 8 Mai !

Today is the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II. I just wanted to say it. A great number of people died on all sides. A lot of blood and tears were shed. We should remember and honour their lives and death.

My Pomegranate tree is progressing... Yesterday, I completed its blue background. Just this very background took a full 15 hours of work... Very tedious, but well worth the pain ! 

So the main pattern - the Tree itself, is complete. Truth is, the piece is not complete ! I still have to enhance it with the outside border of the niche: a floral vine with green leaves and branches, and red and cream flowers. 

 

The background of this vine will be of-white, contrasting beautifully with the blue background of the Tree.

Pomegranate should be complete in June, and flying to France later this summer.
