Creations by Mosaic Artisans
I would like to pay tribute to mosaic artisans from around the world. These are photographs I’ve taken of mosaics while out on little adventures. Note the various styles, which show how unique each mosaic is from the next. The feel of the final composition relies heavily on material choice, color scheme, the design concept and also the placement technique of the tile. As you can see, mosaics can be quite simple or extremely complex, ranging from playful to serious masterpieces.
Many mosaics reside outdoors and have been there for years withstanding the elements, still impressively intact to this day with no signs of wear or damage. Floor mosaics are resilient to daily foot traffic and their resilience is unmatched by any other method of creating lasting art. I want to say thanks to all of the mosaicist out there for their creative visions done for public viewing. I am proud to say that I am a member of The Society of American Mosaic Artist. Visit their website at www.americanmosaics.org to see other artist’s work and the vast range of styles that can be accomplished through this ancient art form.
