MOSAIC SURVIVES WILDFIRE
In November fo 2008 Santa Barbara had a wildfire that was fueled by Sundowner winds of seventy miles an hour. In short time, the blaze consumed over 200 homes in the Santa Barbara and Monticito area of Southern california. Two people were seriously injured and one death as a result of the fire.
Here is one of my many mosaic lizards commissioned by a customer years ago, and how it fared in their private sculpture garden, after the fire. Their home fifty feet away, burned to the ground. The metal trowel you see in the video was found not more than ten feet away from the mosaic lizard on the ground.
I am very proud of how well the sculpture held up…but then I never take short cuts on how I put my artwork together, or spare using good materials. sbmosaics@aol.com
