 |
| The larger of the two mosaics is in the ladies room. |
 |
| We start by scraping off some plaster. We never install on something that is water soluble. |
 |
| Mike is patching up the seams so everything is secure and even. |
 |
| This is the men's restroom and the mosaic is 3 feet smaller. |
 |
| In addition to the beautiful stone throughout, one of the nicest things about these new restrooms is that they have large windows, uncommon for airport restrooms. |
 |
| Our first piece. |
 |
| After we finish installing, we go around and correct any missing, broken, or out of place pieces. It's much easier to do this while the mortar is still wet. |

| End of day 1! |
 |
| Our second day at the airport. |
 |
| We start the day by moving the men's mosaic into the men's room. |
 |
| A few adjustments are needed to have a consistent grout line around the whole piece. |
 |
| The first piece out of nine goes on the wall. |
 |
| A view of the underside of the mosaic is still pretty cool looking. |
 |
| Some minor fixes are needed. |
 |
| End of day 2! |
 |
| Our third day of work. |
 |
| While I continue peeling Mike tests a small area for the grout color. |
 |
| After it dries and the color looks good, we grout the whole thing. |
 | |
| End of day 3! |
 |
| Our fourth and last day of work at the airport. |
 |
| Mike mixes the grout, the same combination (earth and charcoal grey) for the ladies room. |
 |
| Ricardo and Valentina in our glazing studio are able to create effects that resemble tree bark. |
 |
| End of day 4! |
