I read a great quote by Sir Isaac Newton today (you know, the apple-on-head-I'll-call-it-gravity-guy), which inspired me to create this piece. The quote reads:
An essential aspect of creativity is not being afraid to fail.
—Isaac Newton
I created an 8"x8" mosaic of 64 one inch stamped tiles and then cut a mask on the Cricut to fix over the top. I have mixed feelings about it, in some ways it works and in others it doesn't, at least to my eye. Still, Isaac told me not to be afraid to fail, so I'm not! LOL

Thumbs up on this one, Dan. Great quote, great Artisti piece.
I like how you put that quote on paper - with paper! Very creative! :D
I like how the whole thing comes together. Something about the near chaos of the piece definitely speaks of how most create. Keep creating Dan...I always learn something from your designs.
I think it works - I love type and some of your recent projects are inspiring me to create some typography-related projects.
