This work, entitled Zion, was inspired by my very short trip to Zion National Park this summer. The work is smalti, tile, glass, and stone on a hand-formed substrate, and measures 18 inches by 18 inches. It will be one of the works that I’ll be showing at NW Mosaic Today, April 2013, at Tacoma Public Library’s Handforth Gallery, in conjunction with the American Mosaic Summit 2013. This group show will feature several talented and dynamic Northwest mosaic artists.
