Mosaic "In a stream of calm gray" Sculpture

I was born and growed in Siberia, but for the past 25 years I am living in St. Petersburg. Perhaps the city, itself is a piece of masterpiece , led me to creativity after many years of work, first as a doctor, then as a lawyer). A mosaic, that started as a hobby, has grown into a profession that brings joy. Mosaic creation requires patience, persistence and a calm, almost meditative state of the artist. This is especially true when working with natural stone, which lives its own life, has its own character and aura. It is an amazing and inspiring activity to break the whole into pieces first and then reassemble the whole from the pieces. This is extremely slow work, because each piece must take its own place, intended only for it. Each mosaic canvas is a unique piece of art, just as each element, hand-knocked out by hand, is unique, be it stone, glass or smalt.
