How To: Create Mosaic Effect On Your Pictures

Taking photos is a fun way for us to keep memories. People usually take their photos with their digital cameras or the cameras on their phones. It has now become a way of life for people to always take their camera with them wherever they go.  Just like with some of my friends, they even take pictures of their food before they eat it whenever it looks interesting.  There is a conscious effort to show our families and friends what is happening to us on a daily, if not hourly, basis. lol

I love to spice things up and there is a cool and easy way to do that. When I was still in design school in college, my professor would always ask us to create works of art using MosaicMosaic is the art of creating images with an assemblage of small pieces of colored glass, stone, or other materials. It may be a technique of decorative art, an aspect of interior decoration, or of cultural and spiritual significance, as in a cathedral. Small pieces, normally roughly cubic, of stone or glass of different colors, known as tesserae, (diminutive tessellae), are used to create a pattern or picture.  Now one can create a similar effect with our photos with the help of these tools.  Have Fun!
