I have had ambitions to become the most famous artist of micro mosaics of the 21st century (you have to have a dream right?). This dream was shaken on it's foundations recently when I did a Google search of micro mosaics and found that not even on the first page of the search, I wasn't able to search far enough to find my work on their at all. This was a bit of a surprise because I know that there are not many people doing the kind of work that I do now, so I figured that I needed to do two things. 1; I need to get more of my own work out on the internet so people could see it and 2; I needed to investigate all of these other micro mosaic sites to find out what was going on.

This is a piece of my mosaicing, please do not copy the

I discovered to my astonishment that micro mosaicing had actually been around for centuries.
Not the way that I do it of course, as you can see from the photo above, I use glass beads of various shapes and sizes for my work.
