Painting becomes tile mosaic

A local artist painted a colorful landscape and many Eaganites created the tiles which will make up the mosaic copy. At the "Harvest of Art" exhibit opening at the Eagan Art House located at 3931 Lexington Avenue, I had the chance to apply adhesive to the back of one tile. The framed, community mosaic will hang at the Eagan Community Center after completion.

Is it a local view the artist has painted? Yo will have to give as a look at the finished artwork later.

It's a very interesting competition. Beautiful tiles, I think they use the fabulous landscape around the city like a source of inspiration!
Cool! I would love to see more about! :)

Very nice, Safe Leif. Glad you got to apply some adhesive! Heh. Heh. That must be 'cause you're one of the stickiest characters in the area?

Notice I was really nice and didn't say "stinkiest" character...

Glue be gone!
