The Mr. wanted a shallow birdbath with a drip so he mixed up some of my hypertufa and made one. Birds love shallow water. And he finally finished a mosaic he has been working on forever. I think he's a keeper!

Fantastic work.

Gizmo- those hands cut off right behind where you see them. They are made in rubber gloves. A picture from head on would have you looking right in my ugly goose pen.
The mosaic style doesn't have a name that I know of.

The rubber gloves are a great idea - I like the sun, the swirls for his cheeks make him look like he almost has a handlebar mustache, sort of an Old West villain sun.
