I live to mosaic and I mosaic to live – I am indeed fortunate!”
I stretch mosaic boundaries with modern mosaic methods, working “outside the square”.   I mentor mosaic groups & value lifelong relationships with other passionate mosaic artists.  Consulting with experts to ensure product integrity, to me, cement is more than filling or adhesive – grout weaves, winds and combines, providing harmony or excitement.  Materials guide me to their mosaic destination as they sink into the cement to bring long-lasting mosaic beauty.
