2015 was a very special year for me, as my partner and I got married in July. Of course, our wedding was never going to be a mosaic free zone, and I made this piece to illustrate our wedding stationery. It has now been framed and is hanging in the hall way of our house. If you know anyone planning a wedding in 2016, this could be a lovely original touch for 'save the date' cards, invites, order of service booklets etc - with the added bonus of a piece of original artwork as an additional memento of the special day.
And it’s been a good start to 2016, with two commissions underway. I’ve completed a small Union Jack splashback for a cloakroom. The client wanted an English rose motif in the centre and I tried cutting this in different materials – stained glass and ceramic tile. It was good to test out new skills I’d learned on short courses during 2016. It’s always good to try something new. And I’m about to start a small piece inspired by my ‘alliums’ mosaics - looking forward to the challenge!
