Painting With Glass

When I was young my crayons were in rainbow order.

It felt good. 

For as long as I can remember art has always been part of my life, learning, growing, showing and teaching. 

I strive to put emotion, passion and a little whimsy in every piece of art I create, always trying to push the boundries. 

Like numerous artists, I’ve dabbled in many mediums. Most recently,  I have found mosaics and I’ve been told, I’m painting with glass.   

My work is one-of-a-kind, transporting one of the oldest artist mediums to present day. When I work with mosaics and the array of colors and textures, I sense a harmony and a familiarity from when I was young.  

Yes, my glass is in 

rainbow order.












You may call or email me to purchase a mosaic or chat about a commission.

"Very fine juxtaposition of colours, selection of material used in various sizes, and for the use of different materials combined with wisdom, without excess at all cost under the pretext of "having to be original." Although this technique may not be viewed by the "purists" as a “true” mosaic, the wise hands and heart of the artist were able to convey in a perfect and highly original way the limit towards which  we can push in our "research". A research that, in this case,  has already found a "style": original, personal and refined."
