I have seen a number of Homer mosaics displayed here and thought I'd finally add
my own.  I built it quite awhile ago but never took any pictures.  When someone
in the office brought in a camera they snapped this shot which I'll share here.

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=44725

The mosaic (chopped off at the bottom) is 232 x 232 or roughly 6' x 6' and made from roughly 15000 bricks.  And for those wondering if I have artistic talent... no... the image is not mine... I simply had the patience and bricks to create the mosaic.   The image is off of the Simpson's website.   I dumped it into MSPaint and spent a couple o' hours transforming into the 12 Lego colours I had.  The mosaic itself took roughly 20 hours of working time.  It might have been quicker had it not been for the "help" of my 2yr old son.

Enjoy,
- Jeff

(...) Jeff, long time no see, how the heck are you and the family? Dude, that looks just awesome! Let me be the first to entreat for more, and more detailed, pics. Did you build it against baseplates or by stacking bricks? How is it all connected? (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.build.mosaic)

(...) Jeff that is great! I came across the picture on Brickself before I saw this post and got a good laugh out of it. What a great way to decorate the cube wall. At least you won't have trouble finding your office. Nice job, jt (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.build.mosaic)
