Gnomenclature Mosaic Studio

 



Welcome to my new website! 


I’m very happy to share my work with you, and I hope you’ll let me know what you think once you’ve had a chance to look around.  


Whether large or small, I take great joy in creating these pieces.   I especially love creating customized works to help my clients make their gift giving, decorating and architectural visions come true.  Teaching the art is also something I greatly enjoy.
