Santa sighed as he put his empty checkbook out of sight,
“Happy Holidays to all and to all mosaic lovers — good night.”

P.S.  In the next few weeks, the MAN Blogger is going to be very busy “mosaicing” the 2011 edition of Mosaic Art NOW.  She’ll be rerunning some top posts from 2010 and continuing to Hoot & Tweet the latest news.  Cheers, all!

    New Ravenna has a fabulous new branch series that is just beyond gorgeous. A plum blossom panel can be seen at The Fine Line showoom in Chicago and if you are close by… I highly recommend you stop in!
