 Mosaic  - Italian and Mexican smalti, stone,
stained glass, gems, beads, millefiori
8 x 16 inches

Imagine a beautiful garden at the beginning of creation—alive and growing with everything we need… paradise!

 Working with glass is transforming. The pieces are broken, change shape,
fit together, and then made whole again with glue or grout — sometimes in surprising ways. As an artist, I try to link my art to my faith – expressing awe at creation and the Creator — whether abstract landscape, sculpture, or liturgical commissions. As a mosaicist, I treasure glass scraps or discarded items from our “throw-away” culture. It is important to me that nothing is wasted, that beauty is found in what was once broken.
