Above photos: Grouting the branches of the tree was not an easy task. We did our best to keep the dark brown grout of the branches off the light gray grout of the sky.

Bottom left: A Trompe l’oeil (French, for trick 
the eye), painting of Israeli stone was painted to visually connect these two donation plaques to the mosaic wall.
