Novilla Dorado


Texans and Longhorns, they go together like bread and butter.


Add some sensational art work by local talent, Cassie Edmonds and you have Novilla Dorado.


  Cassie, a self-taught mosaic artist, came to our home; visited with us; and, then created this original work of art.  She named it Novilla Dorado, which translates as golden steer.  I am dreaming about one of her other pieces in Blue Moon Gallery, Hot Springs, AR!  She worked her mosaic magic on a vintage dress mannequin.  The work is titled Dancing in the Midnight Garden. 


These are all Cassie's photos she shared with me.

That is AMAZING!!!! Definitely Texas and Longhorns go together. I just LOVE the mosaic work on it.

Amanda said...

Stunning. And I know that you will work it into your space like it was always meant to be there.

Love the rug at Beehive, too. The colors in that thing are spectacular! You can work some reds back into your space. You knew they would never completely disappear, didn't you?

Oh my goodness Tanna..I'm absolutely LOVIN' Cassie's work! SENSATIONAL!!!!! I'll be heading over to check some more of it out through the link you provided. Thank you so much for sharing her.

And thank you for visiting my place earlier. When I see you've dropped over, my heart always smiles! :))

I'm feeling so blessed these days..Mama is in such a great place right now and it has afforded me time to escape into my quiet and peaceful world of art. Today I'll be applying patina and wax on the projects from yesterday and will hopefully have them posted soon after.

Hugs Of Love & Sunshine To You Sweet Friend,
Terri
