I think of mosaics as my craft. I do make mosaics that I feel are fine art, but I feel free to get as crafty as I want with my mosaics. Since creativity and building are foundational for me, I mosaic with anything from paper to stained glass and ceramics. I started making mini mosaics in 2023. I am now teaching a mini mosaic class about 3 times a year and I am making them consistently in any subject matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My students use shape templates of anything from fruit to birds, to anything else they can can think of during class. I usually use stained glass scraps to make any image. Sometimes the color of the glass makes me think of something or all of my students got into a fun idea and now that is inspiring to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think of this art as a way to practice the craft and refine skills like cutting glass and grouting. This frees the artist to make any subject matter They want. It&#8217;s always fun to solve problems of what to be inspired by and how to cut the glass to fit different shapes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am an individual reusing material to make pretty pieces.
