Jet Martinez

We are peeling the final Lena Wolff mosaic

While Mike and Oakland based artist Jet Martinez discuss the piece.

Our first step before installing is to put our guidelines on the wall.

Chloe is back buttering the first piece while Mike trowels the area.







Last piece!

A few adjustments for it to fit properly...

End of day 5!


After peeling and cleaning we are ready to grout. Chloe is taping the edges so we don't make a mess.

We are using three colours on this mosaic, the first is a beige to match the background.


The second colour is a light brown for the blues.


We have to be careful while we are cleaning to not mix the grout colours.

The third colour is a very dark brown for the leaves and some of the darker flowers.


The final result...

And some closeups...







End of day 6!
