Red Heart Mosaic Finished for a Client

These photos are taken with my mobile camera so apologies for the quality.

 

Mosaics are made on request but this mosaic I cannot take credit for because all I had to do was the finishing of the piece: The grouting, cleaning and painting.

A friend of my Grandmother's took on the task of mosaic-ing and asked if I would finish it for her because she didn't know how to do the rest and didn't want to mess up the piece.

I grouted the heart with plain white grout and cleaned off all the tiles (some of them had glue on them) and then I painted the back of the piece with a sponge so there are no lines. (This is actually a technique I think I should rather adopt because painting with a brush leaves lines and I hate that!)

For a first time mosaic-ee, even though she didn't cut the tiles herself, I think she did a great job and she should be very proud of  her piece =D I am very honoured to have finished it for her!
