Micro Mosaics

While I was in Venice recently I picked up some leftover micro mosaic stuff out of sheer curiosity.  I had the courage last week to turn that into some pendants and have since totally gotten the hang of it.  I will look for ways to improve my techniques and the rendering of the subjects.  I am not a huge flower fan, animals would be much more fun to make and to look at afterwards.

Also, I think that I would like to work with more monochrome colors.  The surface of a micro mosaic is so small that using a wider range of color palette usually is a disadvantage.  Focus is what a small mosaic like this needs, focus of shape, color and theme.  I'll try to remind myself and work on that.
