INSPIRATION.........MEXICO AND MORE!

Inspiration-mosaic 1
I know it looks like this house should be in Mexico, but it's in London.  It's the home of artists Steve Wright and Donald Jones and they are amazingly talented.  The mosaic work is absolutely fantastic and super colorful which always inspires me.
Inspiration-mosaic 2
These colors and this room remind me of rooms you might find anywhere in Mexico.  Turquoise and yellow with dashes of red and light blue always looks fantastic.

Pink stairs, pink chairs and tons of art all over the walls......It makes me want to paint everything I own.
Inspiration mosaic 4
I have an armoire in my guest room which I've been too afraid to paint.  The fact is that I really don't like it very much the way it is.  When I saw this photo I decided immediately that it had to be painted.  I can always re-paint it, RIGHT?!

More mosaic work on one of the outside walls.  Digging the Diana and Elvis plates as the centers of the circles.
INSPIRATION 6
This is the living room of artist Pedro Friedeberg who resides in San Miguel de Allende.  I thought this chair was fantastic.
Inspiration 8
The Mexican home of San Francisco architects Cathi and Steven House.
