Incredible Mosaic Artists World Wide Depend On Laticrete (Wow !)

Hi Henry,
I just wanted to compliment Art Mintie once again, as well as Frank in the technical department.
I arrived on the job site at the Children's Hospital to start the install today and found a PRIMED WALL, instead of the bare sheetrock as I had specified in my contract and my walk-through.  Egad! 
And then I pulled my ace out of the hole and said 'Let's just call the technical department at Laticrete'.
Art was in a meeting and I spoke to Frank.  Art called me back as soon as he got out of his meeting and confirmed the solution I requested which was fresh bare drywall.  And now that's done and we go back tomorrow and do the install.  I don't have Frank's email but please pass my thanks on to him.
Laticrete to the rescue again!
I'll be posting pics on my Facebook mosaics page of the install and I'll mention Laticrete in the caption  :-)
Here's the first one that will go up in the morning of my trusty assistant Leigh Davis with crates of mosaic mesh sections and plenty of Laticrete MultiMax and grout :-)
Many thanks to all of you, best, Sonia

Dear Henry,
Images of some of my recent work.  I use only Laticrete and have done so for 20 years now.  These images are of "Marisa the Magical Bird" located at Rady Children's Hospital in San Diego.

I wanted to give you an update on the Laticrete donation.  At this point, things on site have settled into a slow yet steady rhythm of work being put into place.  We have approximately 15% - 20% of the conc floor slabs installed and are ready to start tile installation in some areas.  Attached are a few pics (wish I had more) of some of our Haitian workers off-loading the Laticrete donation that arrived on site earlier this week.  (remember, Peter got the materials to us at the end of May = 8-10 weeks ago)  The other two pics are of the workers installing a small tile floor mock up for everyone's review and to confirm the install team knows how to properly install the tile.

On behalf of the National Teaching Hospital construction project team, I want to THANK YOU again for the generous donation of Laticrete products for the project.

I have copied Heidi Burgess from our team who can forward the most current blog and photo info on the project.

Thanks again!

Charlie
