Octopus Mosaic

Octopus Mosaic 009

My daughter did a project on ancient Greek art. She wrote about many things, including Octopus vases and mosaics. As part of the project, we worked together to make this mosaic of an octopus vase.

The original flask/vase we used as a "model" can be found described here: http://netra.glendale.cc.ca.us/ceramics/minoanoctopusvase.html

Morgan drew the vase and octopus, and then the two of us worked together, or in shifts, anyway, making the mosaic out of torn up magazine pages. I think she (we both) did a fantastic job!
