Hi, Dan
As you are located in Romania, I suggest you get in touch with the
people at www.suncanisat.com - who specialise in the "Analemmatic"
type of 'Human Sundial', and are not far away from you in Croatia.
There are a lot of 'painted' (and other) layouts on their website,
though you might also want to think about more permanent 'mosaic'.
Sincerely,
Martina Addiscott.
