Expressing… Shug Jones

  • on September 9, 2011

I have worked in many media over the years—graphite, ink, colored pencil, oil, watercolor, and even scratchboard. They all have their place in my repertoire of art supplies.  Today, however, I choose to use tactile materials, such as glass,...

Expressing… Gary Drostle

  • on September 9, 2011

Mosaic is a medium that never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think I have the measure of it or it can’t possibly hold any more, some amazing new facet reveals itself. I don’t think there is another...

  • on September 9, 2011

Formerly a painter, in love with texture, I began adding objects to my canvases. Now working in mosaic art, I do the reverse, sometimes adding a little paint to my mosaics. I work intuitively, so the process is never...

Expressing… Karen Dimit

  • on September 9, 2011

Have you ever been obsessed when working on a jigsaw puzzle? Have you ever been seduced by jewel-like colors, stones on the beach, materials natural and man-made? Do you get deep satisfaction when occupied with physical involvement in your...

Expressing… Dominic Johns

  • on September 9, 2011

“Why do I express myself in mosaic?” This is a question I often ask myself as I wade through some of the more elaborate works I set out to create. Watching painters and print media practitioners, I often feel...
