Mosaic Monday Updates

The Inland Valley Daily Bulletin reports that the once-endangered Millard Sheets Rose Parade Mural is safely ensconced at the Millard Sheets Center for the Arts at the Fairplex in Pomona. (Read about the attempt to paint over it here.) The Pasadena Convention Center Directors are negotiating with the gallery, because they'd like to bring it 'home' to their Convention Center on Marengo where everyone could enjoy it.

Kristina Gregory of Summer Studios (the Mosaic Monday posting of Feb. 15) wanted to point out that the mosaic represented a collaboration between Summer Studios Arts Academy and Mosaic Alchemy's Betty Rosen Ziff (www.mosaicalchemy.com). The Mosaic Alchemy blog is fascinating, especially the Public Art page. I've been remiss in not mentioning Betty Rosen Ziff and her work (and blog) before. I could use her resume as a base for "Mosaic Mondays" for the next six months, and cometothinkofit that's not a bad idea....
