Owls in Progress!

The holidays were busy with a lot of mosaic work- but come January and I am bored! I took advantage of this time to work on a fun mosaic of owls. For some reason I have a strange obsession with owls lately. They are just so darn cute! And obviously I had some fun with these colors. I will post a pic when it's complete!

Mirror with poppies!

We just installed this mirror at our friends house a few weekends ago. It was hilarious to have four adults in one small powder room leveling and hanging this mirror. Turned out so pretty though. I love it!

Cher & Jer's Place!

Our friends ordered this for their parent's house for the basement hangout room. 

Pretty awesome, right!? I think it looks like the sign to an old pub. :)

Chief Wahoo

This poster size mosaic measures 24" x 36".

It was really fun to work with such vivid colors on this piece. I love the contrast.

As much as I am not a sports fan this turned out to be one of my favorite pieces!

Baby Shower Gifts

This winter I made a few baby shower gifts.

The first is a night light for a girls room.

The second is a buggy night light for Connor's room.

And this one is a whimsical froggy picture for Zachary's room.

Bing Bing

These two mosaics show the ONLY time that I have ever agreed to repeat a subject matter and make 2 mosaics so similar. The one with the blue background was ordered first for my friends house of the beloved family dog, Bing Bing. After her father saw the artwork he wanted one for his house as well! She is a pretty cute dog, isn't she?

Taj Mahal

I am posting a few older pictures because I have been so behind with sharing them! Last year this piece was commissioned by my good friends, the Patels. At first I was a little overwhelmed with such a detailed project- but it ended up being really fun! It looks gorgeous on the wall in their dining room.

JDRF mirror

I just finished this mirror. It will be auctioned off at a silent auction May 8th at the annual Crystal Ball in New Brunswick, NJ to benefit Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). This is a great international foundation that is dedicated to finding a cure for juvenile diabetes. Check them out: http://www.jdrf.org/

How does one get in the habit of blogging?

I have had a very busy summer of traveling and working... I think it is time to post a few pictures of what I've been up to! I've got to get better at keeping up on this!

This is a backsplash I did for some friends in their newly remodeled basement. Beautiful bar, isn't it?

Mom & Dad's House in the fall

I did this piece as a gift for my parents. It was done from a photograph that my mom had taken in the fall. I love the colors in this one and the abstractness. The branch and leaves just in front of the "camera" are so vivid and defined while the trees beyond the house are so much more like a George Seurat painting.
