Much of my work is done on commission.
All of these pieces are original designs. Each piece,
whether for the wall, the garden or destined to become part
of the fabric of your home, is unique. However, if you are
inspired by something you see on this site, I am very happy
to use that as a starting point to arrive at your individual
piece.
The commission process involves working closely with
clients. The process starts, where practicable, with a site
visit to see how the piece will fit with your home. If this
is not possible, I am happy to work with photographs and
descriptions. Some people like to have a lot of input,
others are happy for me to produce a design brief and go
from there. The starting point can be almost anything; from
an original drawing or photograph to an idea inspired by
landscape, a person or a special occasion.
Mosaic
materials may include marble, vitreous glass,
unglazed ceramics and other materials. I cut everything
by hand and assemble them in my workshop, ready for
installation. Hanging wall pieces come ready to hang
and are mounted on lightweight board. People often think that having a permanent
mosaic such as a backsplash or shower wall means the
mosaicist taking up residence in their home for weeks on
end. Don’t worry! Mosaics are supplied ready to install, or,
in the case of art pieces, ready to hang. The mosaic method
and materials used will vary as appropriate for the
materials used and the eventual location of the piece.
Commissions have included;
art pieces, furniture, garden pieces and architectural
installations such as mosaic "rugs" and shower walls. The
price depends on the size and complexity of a piece and the
materials chosen. This web site gives you samples of my work
in the gallery section, so please feel free to browse. If
you have any questions, please
contact
me.
