7 July 2020 – Could it get any better?
An alley made happy with a happy crocodile head (or so I see it), those great jaws curved in a smile …
and, and, the croc is made up of crockery.
Gazillions of tiny shards, placed with great deliberation, colour/texture/design all orchestrated for stand-back visual coherence.
But come in close.
To the croc’s eye, for example …
You see?
The croc is not all alone, in his alley corner.
Other shapes & designs are also pressed into the retaining wall (and on up the steps of the adjoining home, so there’s one mystery solved).
I particularly like this design, because Mother Nature has added her own rose-petal embellishment, upper left.

/ 12 July 2020When you come in close, you see how thoughtfully, deliberately each angle & juxtaposition has been chosen…
