This is an "ArtyGator" I did for the city of Sanford two years ago. It was 7 feet tall! I know I complained about the bunny taking a long time, but this guy took me a full month working 40-50 hours a week. Every single piece of glass that I mosaic-ed on him was handcut.
Annheiser Busch sponsored for me to complete this guy. So I painted the eagle on his arm...
Here's a close-up of the back.
A view from behind...
It was a city project and I think about 20 artists painted theirs. There were some really beautiful ones. Mine was the only mosaic one. I loved how he turned out but it was hard work!
Thanks for looking at my Flashback Friday!
And I guess you are wondering who the winner of the cupcake barrette is...
...it is Frugal Jen!!
Congratulations Jen! Please email me your address so I can get this out to you!
And many thanks to all of you who played and gave me your honest feedback about the pieces. I am definitely going to put some things together and list them on my etsy shop soon. Thank you also for the recent Etsy orders...:)
I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend. We have a Cupcake themed birthday party tomorrow for our little princess. I'll be back on Monday with some pictures:)

I love the gator! What a neat project for that city. I'm guessing in Florida. Here in Iowa they usually do cows or pigs.
