PLEASE add your photo to your profile - unless you want to look like Moegoe the Gorilla... :-)
Also......
1. Please give the photos of your work a name/title when uploading them.
2. Please mention the size & materials used.
3. Please add tags to the photos - it is incredibly difficult to sort through the photos if they are not tagged.
If you are not sure how to do it, click HERE
We welcome all who enjoy mosaics and would like to share
their passion, experience and knowledge with others.

Thanks to all our MASA Members who participated in our "More than Cats & Dogs" National Community Service Project in support of SPCA.
A number of the 10 BEST SPCA MOSAICS have already raised more than R20 000 in support of the smaller SPCA's around the country. They were not auctioned off at one function but sent to the smaller branches who raffled them to raise funds and have done an excellent job with our donated mosaics.
Due to your efforts and willingness to do something for our furry, feathered and wooly friends we have received the following:
We have once again proved that by working together towards a common goal, major things can happen and we are very proud of our members who responded and participated in this Project.
Thank you!

MASA was invited to send a representative to an interview on Good Morning Africa (DSTV Channel 114)!
So here's the thing, give me a microphone and I can happily chat to millions of people on a radio station. BUT put me in front of a camera and one of two things happens, I either stutter like a blithering idiot, my mouth goes dry and I cannot formulate words properly and end up sounding stooopid! So it was time to call in reinforcements in the form of Marina Giovitto Ehlers who has done so many of these things, is always cool under pressure and knows a helluva lot more about mosaic than I ever will!
The producers asked if we would also demonstrate how mosaic is done, and one of the questions they were going to ask us is what materials could be used for mosaic. Easy Peasy - No problem there! I started another Mosaic with Heart panel and had huge fun scratching through all the bits and pieces left behind from previous projects so that I could have many…

I would like to take this opportunity to thank MASA, the judges and the Mosaic friends for the encouragement and the votes. May I also say congratulations to my fellow participants in the competition, each and everyone of you are stars and I just got lucky. This was a first for me and hope to have the time to compete again. I am looking forward to chatting with all of you as to improve on my work.
All the best to MASA and Friends

At the beginning of the year when everyone seems to be coming up with New Year's Resolutions, with all good intentions and determination to make a difference somehow - its natural to take a look back with 20/20 hindsight about how you could have done things differently and perhaps silently promise not to make the same mistakes again!!!
