Fabulous Friday - Mosaic Abstract Panel

Mosaic Abstract Panel

This mosaic is entitled "Fruit Medley". It is based on a photograph I took of plastic oranges and a pear in a basket. I used some funky editing on the photo and came up with some awesome colors making it abstract and very different. The last photo (on the Etsy website) shows where this mosaic started.

As usual, I like to use things that were headed to the dumpster and create art from them. Saving the landfill and making art is a fantastic feeling! This is made on a piece of Styrofoam (which cannot be recycled here in our area). I covered it with layers of plaster cast strips and thin set cement before putting a mosaic on it.

This looks great sitting on a shelf or on a table. I used iridescent glass and colored mirror around the fruit giving it a frame of sorts. It can be placed in a custom frame if desired.

Stand is included.

Mosaic Monday - Abstract Modern Mosaic

Abstract Modern Mosaic

 

 

 

Mosaic Stained Glass Wall Art in tangerine, metallic rust and orange sherbet stained glass. I have named this one "Back To Basics". At the time I created it, in April 2010, I wanted to make some art that was fairly simple in design but had a large visual impact. I believe this 8 inch wall hanging expresses what I wanted to achieve very well.

You should keep this one for yourself but if you must, gift it to the very best person you know who would love mosaic art as much as we do. Makes a wonderful wedding gift, anniversary present, birthday gift, retirement present.

Can be hung in any room, with almost any color decor and design as depicted in the photos I share here. This is meant to stand out and fit in, all at the same time.

Measures 8 inches, has a D-ring which is hanging hardware attached and is signed and dated. Wooden frame was handcrafted by my father who was in his mid-70's at the time.

Indoor use only.

Fabulous Friday - Mosaic Coasters

Mosaic Coasters

 

Beautiful mosaic two coaster set made using an unusual assortment of tempered or crash glass, acrylic paint and glitter. The grout is white and gives these coasters a truly magical appearance.

The photos show the work-in-progress creating these coasters, starting with the paint, glitter, adding tempered glass and finally the finished product after grouting.

These coasters could also be used as individual candle holders or displayed in a sunny window so that the light shines spreading rays of light throughout any room.

Each coaster is 4 in. x 4 in. Do not submerge in water.

The bottom of the coasters have small felt pads to keep your furniture from scratching.

Can be used outdoors but do not leave in weather; rain or temperature changes. They are not weather-proof.

Wednesday - What Day?

What Day? posts are free-forming thoughts and possible things going on in the studio and personally.

Right now, I'm not creating at all which is fine. I am in flux at the moment, hoping to share more info within the next month or so. Life is changing, for the better, but it's too soon to spill the beans just yet!

So, while I rest and reorganize and recuperate from regular life stuff and things, I believe I'll share the eclectic array of art from my Etsy shop for the next month or so. There's enough to share, that's for sure!

Today, I thought I'd share my Bohemian Flower Mosaic Wall Art because it's a favorite of mine and it's kinda cool.

Mosaic Flower, Bohemian style. I took an old MDF shelf heading toward the recycling bin and drew a flower on it, adding stained glass and recycled mirror making this groovy piece of mosaic art. The flower has an orange 1/2 circle in the center, iridescent glass and recycled mirror highlighting the brown, green, orange and red glass. Pretty pieces of mirror in swirls attach to the flower. Background is in black with spots here and there of colors of glass used in the flower. A small peace sign in the corner is my signature, and I've signed the back and dated it as well.

The back has 2 D-rings with a wire for easy and sturdy hanging. 2 felt pads are attached to the bottom to protect your walls from getting scratched by the MDF wood.

All hand cut pieces, done at the time of creation, this 11 x 16 inch wall hanging is quite an impressive addition to anyone's home or office.

I enjoy taking things headed toward the landfill and creating something unique with them. Broken pieces of mirror and the shelf itself, were salvaged and reused.

Indoor use only.

Mosaic Monday - Crescent Moon Mosaic

Crescent Moon Mosaic

 

Lavender Moon. It's hard to capture the beauty of this hand mixed lavender grout I used for this moon in photos but if I do say so myself the entire mosaic is absolutely luscious in person. The white iridescent glass sparkles in different hues ranging from yellow to purple, green and blue, the silver mirror grabs the light, dish pieces from my blue and white stash add the perfect blending. Topped off by small black iridescent glass circles and the lavender grout. It's awesome!!

Perfect for a birthday, wedding, anniversary, housewarming, holiday. Anyone who loves purple, blue and white AND celestial designs will absolutely LOVE this crescent moon.

Gift to a special someone or save it for yourself. As long as it's enjoyed, it's job is done.

My signature, a peace sign charm, has been added. A felt pad has been attached so the back will not scratch your walls. Signed and dated.

Indoor use only.

Measures 12 inches high

Gift this to someone who loves peace signs. Makes a great birthday present, holiday gift, anniversary gift, or a just because gift.

Works well in most every room. I'd say those who have a flair for homey decor will love this addition to their nest.
