Recycled Metal Mosaic - Jill Helms

My favorite thing about this "Metal Mosaic" (don't you just love that combo?) would have to be the fins on the orange and red fish at the top. The silver used there says "beautiful". Along with the other colors thrown makes it look as if it were glimmering as fish actually do in the water. The blue, green, and purple here that  represent the ocean water colors is very cool I think because it's not JUST blue or just a sea like green. The ocean color match the style of the fish here; very colorful. Noticing the bit of green used on the bottom fish, very nice.  Creative and well thought out. We like :D

Lone Fish! His eyes are pretty awesome looking he looks wild with those eyes. Like a real fish. I love all the different shades of blue used here. The bubbles are really cool The biggest one being a mirror. I love his lips! They are different than the ones above. The lemon on his back is hilarious. This little guy is so cool. :)

I guess that nothing say love more than art! Black and red together always a good combo (what color does black not make look more awesome?) Cherry soda, Cocoa Cola, and Dr. Pepper.  And others I'm not familiar with. One thing that I like about this is that it draws your attention to the fact that not only is color important here but also the blocks pieced together to make everything harmonize.

I love the bird here, he's so cute.With his pretty bright orange and yellow feather along with a small amount of red. Some of the metal used on his back and belly has a textured appearance (Very similar looking to actual bird feathers on those parts of a bird) which looks great while helping the bird look more real. My favorite thing on here would have to be the branch, its shape is very realistic looking also the browns that were chosen are fabulous. I really like how the squares closer to the branch are green and all of them have a leaf-like theme or feel to imply that the branch is not bare.

Love again <3. The background has such a pretty hue of purple. The wavy metal, the purple, orange-red, and turquoise combination all scream 60's style :D The little circle with the curly colorful metal sticking out is too cute. And I LOVE the way the word IoVe was displayed here.

Another 60's style Metal Mosaic. I really like how many colors included here. And how they change gradually pretty smooth for metal, right? lol and LOOK it's says Lemonade! ( : I noticed that first about this little work of art. I'm sure that it was cut out on purpose now I'm not too sure what they call that in this particular branch of art but in quilting it's called "Fussy Cutting" (Thanks Mom ( ; )

The blue and green metal used on this fish is really cool because of the wavy look that it has that water-like look (perfect for fish). I like how he has a yellow underbelly and how the fins are silver and green. Also how the little orange circles were put against that blue, super pretty.

I love this one! It might be my favorite because of how many different colors are used in the petals, leaves, and background. All of the different shades are much more appealing than using one solid color or even just two. The greens and yellows on the leaves, the blues, purples, silver-white, and even a little red in the back drop and the petals with all of it's warm colors oranges a ton of yellows, again a little red and in the very middle a mirror. This one is so gorgeous to me.The colors are so rich.
