Have you wondered about the rostrum's background at the Senate trial?

5. i should have known someone else here would notice.

i llloooooove marble, and i love looking at that lovely slab.
what do you think those splashes of green are? copper-something, i assume.

i have done a lot of tile in my house, and i can only barely lay a straight run of tiles out of the box. always have to cut some in half, and make a little border, at the minimum.
i have done several mosaics around my house, including my kitchen backsplash and my foyer floor.

i truly love that color. marble has a very limited palette, and i am a tetrachrome, so it is a bit love/hate.
but i have used a lot of that red, w a red veined cream.

i recently did a rehab on a rental and i salvaged a beautiful chunk of countertop.
mostly cream, w veins of something metallic/grey, and red dots. garnets.
i havent chipped the leftover bits apart yet, but it's def on my to-do-list.
