Water fountain

San Diego, CA(Zone 10b)

I have been daydreaming of a wall fountain for a while now. I need to get started now, that's it! I wanted something like the one on the photo, but I can settle for something more realistic for a newbie like me!
I can build it against my patio wall. I am thinking of using blocks or bricks (?) to build the basin, then tiling the outside and back wall with a bunch of mexican tiles I got as a gift. Then I'll buy a pump and somehow run it behind the tiles. (how?)

Please let me know am I "tripping out" or is this feasible? What advice do you have for me? easiest materials to work with? How do hide the pump and electrical?waterproofing? etc!
