Fast Art: Making a Mosaic

Over the past three weeks I've been following Tara Nielson as she made a mosaic at Mosaic On A Stick in St. Paul. Every time she placed a tile, I took a picture. I've sped up the results into what I'm calling "Fast Art" (much healthier for you than fast food). Check it out, and if making a mosaic intrigues you, stay tuned for a "How To" presentation next week.
