He would take photos, and use them as notes, and he would also sketch everything in such great detail into notebooks for future references.

The sculpture has so much detail and movement in it, it felt as if it was going to leap right off the stand it was propped on.
Gilbert Moss and Angela Pasaic spent several summers during their college years working at archaeological sites in the Southwest. While at these digs, they learned how to make ceramic tiles from local artisans. After college they made use of their college experiences to start a tile manufacturing firm called Mossaic Tiles, Ltd.
