these tiles on an old house with a traditional algarvian chimney seemed interesting to shoot.

Decorative tiling in an Art Nouveau/ Art Deco building, Lindfield. Without intensive examination I would say that the building is on the cusp of these two styles; however the colours in the tiling make me lean towards Art Deco as I've seen similar in regional buildings that are more clearly part of the great Art Deco building boom in Australia.

6"x6" A mosaic just filled with color and texture. Made with beads, millefiori, smalti, glitter tiles, colorfusion tiles, glass rods, tiny tiles, van gogh glass, mirror tile. Listed on my etsy site.
Formerly a Prudential office on the corner of St Andrews Square and North St Andrews Street; now swanky (allegedly) Tiles bar.
Somewhere on the Iberian Peninsula.
Glazed and fired clay tile work is seen throughout Portugal and Spain. This art well records the millennial march of cultures.
The marble bench speaks to the availability and common use of local marble in the finer aspects of architecture over millennia.
PLEASE VIEW LARGE FOR DETAIL!
burano- a little isle off the coast of venice, ITALY - is famous for its brilliant hues and handmade lace. i spent a day - but wish i could have had more time there. i remember the sounds of boats on the water, the smell of outdoor cafes, the incredible sight of multicolored buildings with clay tile roofs - a SENSORY paradise!!
the ten day trip to italy was a part of my master's program in fine arts - definitively the best graduate credit EVER!!
pleated waves à la Goran Konjevod folded in Vienna.
folded from a very beautiful sheet of Hilli's paper. the distribution of the colours and the shiny parts create the impression that the whole thing is made from lots of small tiles like a mosaic. I love that :-)))
A mid-block wall of little tiles in Meadville, Pennsylvania. From old Street Views it appears the tiles were hidden behind a wooden facade of a bar that was long gone by 2008. Here's the 2015 view before the facade was removed.
When I discovered how much fun it was to paint pebbles a while back I had an idea that it might be fun to use these acrylic pens on other items such as tiles. We discovered we had some spare tiles in the shed left over from when we had the kitchen and bathrooms redone, and JJ and I decorated some of them. I wonder if you can recognise our styles and work out which ones JJ did! He painted 4 - I did the rest.
I gave one to Matt and Sophie for their anniversary and am going to give my sister one when I see her as it's her anniversary in September! We've recently tidied up our lean-to and JJ had the idea it would be nice to have a line up along the wall that the kitchen window looks out at! A lot of the year we have washing up here but in the summer it's much clearer and we can enjoy looking out at them!
The first photo shows them in the garden after I sprayed them with protective spray and the second pic shows them up on the wall, using Command strips.
There are 49 tiles in the collage. I took these pictures of the tiles on different buildings in Lisboa and Porto. This was quite a project I must confess.....
I found these two headstones interesting as it's not often I see tile work incorporated into the memorials.

A few years back I got this regulator installed in my shower. It works so well compared to the old one that was there.
