Building Day 1 Writing by Shylene Schlackl July 24, 2004 So the day is finally here to start making the mosaics. With the shapes we just cut out that morning we all got to work. This is the first time I have worked in this method, using mortar as the glue. This product was nicely donated by Tile Town - thanks to Tom! So, again mask on, I began to mix the mortar... 
Shylene mixing... We got started on the skateboard girl first and the man and the dog second. 
Starting 1 
Starting 2 Part way through the afternoon a lady stopped in to see what we were doing and played some lovely music on the piano for us. It was a wonderful addition to our day. 
Lady on piano We all noticed that we have had a lack of male participants on the project and we talked about trying to change this. Just as we were having the conversation a young gent waiting for the bus came in to see what we were up to. Funny how that works. 
Gentleman stops in It was a nice afternoon, with only a few participants coming in. We worked through the afternoon and were happy with the work completed. It will not take long to get these mosaics completed. 
Skate-boarder coming together... 
Skate-boarder looking good I brought with me some snacks to share with the group, so part way through the workshop we stopped to share a nibble. It was nice to share with my new friends. SO much of what mtC is about is sharing and making new relationships. 
Snacks... Then after a busy workshop we got to cleaning up together. Funny this is when the guys all showed up. Which was fine, as we can always use help with the clean up!
