2018, 200 mm x 250 mm, vintage china, glass tiles and gems on ceramic substrate. This little fellow was made for the Year of the Dog exhibition at the Otago Art Society. I fell totally in love with his personality and was a little saddened when he sold.

I’ve been mosaicing for about 16 years, after a friend in Wellington introduced me to it when I was visiting one weekend – and I was instantly hooked. I started out using mostly vintage china, moved away from it for a few years and now find myself mainly working in china again, although I have found myself incorporating more and more ‘found’ items into my work, such as vintage jewellery.
I rarely know what the finished article is going to look like, and that’s one of the things I love most about mosaicing – I can mix and match different tesserae and surprise myself with the finished result!
