A mosaic masterpiece in the round. Barbara has refined the use of cement and reinforced webbing to create a hollow, lightweight shape that is easily transportable, so the orbs can be moved around to new locations for enjoyment and inspiration. The covering of high-fired tile enables the art to withstand the elements of weather and time.

Each mosaic begins with your idea, which Barbara transforms into a preliminary sketch. A wide variety of materials are possible, depending on your budget and location requirements. Barbara will show tile or glass samples, propose options to guide your selection, and establish a timetable.

texas native fairy tree project | View Gallery
Living in a small rural town surrounded by big cities, I have become very aware of the dwindling population of native trees in residential and commercial landscaping. The goal of the Texas Native Fairy Tree Project was to introduce native trees to children and parents in our Town of Sunnyvale, Texas. The tree base is an eight foot cedar tree stump estimated to have been 100 years old. Six native trees took on fairy qualities via mosaics to live in the old cedar: Bois d’ Arc, Texas Flowering Willow, Sweet Gum, Big Tooth Maple, Texas Willow and Lacy Oak. Funded by the Sunnyvale Garden Club and gifted to the Town of Sunnyvale.

Mosaic projects are great community-building activities, excellent for churches, schools, clubs, and cities. Barbara can design a custom activity to meet your request for interior or exterior walls, windows, or other large surfaces. Each project has a different approach to meet the group’s needs. Here are samples of a few group projects.
