The Bleu Paintbrush From a career in heavy industry, I have subtly shifted everything I see into something colorful and playful. Glass, stone, shells & beads all tell my story

Made this in Antarctica in 2023 and finally just made the frame today. I’m giving it to a co-worker and his wife to bring back with them to Canada 🍁. They love the weather in Texas, so this will hopefully be a happy reminder of their time here!

Made 2 years ago in Antarctica at McMurdo Station. Broken dinner plates from the galley, broken liquor bottles from many donors, silicone adhesive and floor grout. There’s are rusted out old Caterpillar D3500 generator bolts.

It was permanently screwed into the smoke shack wall.

Sunday: Adhered today to the cement post. Not that comfortable using thinset for mosaics, or mosaicking on a netting backing, but it’s necessary for outdoor mosaics and it went fairly well!

Saturday: Living along a hwy means you need a marker post! We found a free, used cement post and I made this house number marker for one side. Tomorrow we’ll install it and I will start the mosaic for the other side! It’s about 5ft in length.

House numbers for my best friend, Pam 🙌 2.5 days from start to finish and the second piece created in the studio 🦋🌿

First mosaic to be started in the new “The Bleu Paintbrush Mosaics” studio!

“Redwing Blackbird”

I used two different kinds of glass, one with a super neat metallic coating that only shows when the light hits it a certain way. It’s a discovery waiting to be found!

“Raise the daughter people are a little scared of. Teach her to be fierce, independent, and not give a crap about what people think. Raise her to be a little firecracker who is going to change the world and make a difference.”
