Hi Everybody,
Our mosaics have been spread out over a few different posts in a few different categories so Mr cheeky half and I wanted to condense it into one thread where we will post updates and new artwork.
Speaking of which, we have just completed this mosaic skateboard for the "Self Propelled" art show at A StuART Gallery. We wanted to share it with the tc gang first......
The rest of our mosaics can be viewed at http://www.velvetglass.com if you haven't already seen them.

Hey Hewey, thank you for the kind words. We are starting to put our artwork "out there" and it's nice to get feedback on it.
Mr cheeky half and I just got back from L.A. where we had a great time and met some very cool tc'ers. The Tiki Ti is unequalled in atmosphere and drink quality. I would like to warn other out of towners, such as myself, about a nice man at the bar that might suggest ordering a Jimmy's Special. Just smile politely and order a Mai Tai. The JS is a fine drink, it's just that you might not remember it in the morning.

Nicely done. I really like the detail around the mouth of the tiki.
Looks like a meticulous artform.

This deck is even better in person....I checked it out at the self-propelled show this past weekend and this picture just does it no justice. Great stuff....I love the mamba piece you had there too!!

Cheers Monkeyman and Clysdalle! It is a very meticulous artform that tends to look better in person.

It was great to meet you too, suburbanpagan. We did have a lot of fun in L.A. Christian and his family are lovely people. Hopefully, with luck and fingers crossed, we'll be back. Besides we still have to hit Sunday night at the Lucky Tiki.

Mr cheeky half and I created this mosaic for the Kon Tiki. We performed sacred rituals and sacrificed a vintage mug then added flickering tiki torches for ambiance.
Cheers!

Awsome Kon Tiki piece Cheeky! Love the 3-D addition with the mug and torches.
I've had the pleasure of seeing Cheekys mosaics in person and they are the coolest pieces I've seen. Great job!
