Mosaic Artist – Angela Zimek

For me, creativity is a very important part of life. Designing and creating is one of my basic needs, I love the challenge of piecing together my ideas. I must thank my brother, his girlfriend & my husband, for without their persistence & support my works would never be seen.

My first exhibition of nudes was very successful & many exhibitions followed. I continue to experiment with different techniques through a combination of painting and mosaic. Strong colors are very important to me; gray often dominates representing the cold of the everyday, while the opposing warm colors express the joy of life. The harmonious and clear lines for me are an expression of equilibrium. Angela Zimek

Laura Harris – Mosaic Artist

“Today, the world can appear fragmented and its people disconnected, mosaics allow me to fuse the pieces together to create something cohesive and beautiful , what I wish the world could be.” — Laura Harris

Portrait of a Ballerina – mosaic-art melonheadgallery

Laura Harris was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1961. She is the daughter of the late Midwest sculptor/painter, Walter Lenz. Laura has been working in mixed media, including fiber art, acrylic art and mosaic art for over 25 years.

Swan Lake Mosaic Ballerina – mosaic-art melonheadgallery

More recently, Laura has concentrated on mosaic portrait art. She uses a direct method of application whereas each piece of tesserae is permanently adhered to a substrate. After sketching out a design, each individual piece of tesserae is hand cut to create unique mosaics.

Lady with Roses – mosaic-art melonheadgallery

Her tesserae include venetian smalti and dichroic glass, 24 Kt. Italian gold smalti, porcelain, ceramic tile, mirror, stone and salvaged or recycled materials. Laura’s work has been compared to some of the great European mosaic artists of the 21st century.

Creeping Thyme – mosaic-art melonheadgallery

Laura’s career was not limited to the field of art. Laura graduated summa cum laude from UWM-Milwaukee with a master’s degree in 1985. She worked as a speech-language pathologist for over 15 years and was recognized in 1998 as one of the top 5 teachers in Wisconsin for her efforts in the field of Assistive Technology and voted New Berlin Public School Teacher of the Year in 2001.

Old man in a hat – mosaic-art melonheadgallery

Laura has now retired from her teaching career to pursue her art full-time. Although handicapped with MS, first diagnosed in 1985, Laura has risen above her physical limitations to create fine art mosaic pieces that encapsulate the heart and soul of the subject matter.

Hatsumomo mosaic – mosaic-art melonheadgallery

I was diagnosed with MS in 1985 ,but was able to work full time as a speech-Language pathologist until 2 years ago. My MS made it too difficult to continue. But, there’s always a silver lining and I discovered I could draw and create mosaic portraits out of glass and tile. I can’t feel when i cut myself… so, I guess this is what I was meant to do!

Broken ashtrays and salt shakers lend poetry to artist Shannon Landis Hansen’s sculpture ‘Still Standing’ – Doug MacCash – Times-Picayune – NOLA.com

Born in 1947, Shannon spent her childhood moving from place to place. She found herself living in boisterous construction camps in the Pacific Northwest, in a fishing village at the mouth of the Columbia river, a boarding house on the plains of Montana, and happily, for a short while, in a beloved brick house in Memphis, Tennessee.

Mosaic – Rose – “Still Standing” mosaic piece – geegj

Very shy and impressionable, she loved books, reading Dickens, Jane Austen and the Bronte sisters, but, even more, she was always drawn into the secret lives of things, playing with and creating arrangements with whatever was at hand — driftwood, iron scraps, the objects found on an old dresser.

Mosaic – Southern Belle – geegj

She explains,

“Parallel to our lives are the lives of things. Just like us, they have their own journeys through time, in some ways staying the same, in some ways changing. The little German girl who wanted a Dresden ballerina got old and died, but the ballerina is still here — maybe she’s missing a few fingers that got chipped off.”

Mosaic – Pieces of the “Still Standing” mosaic – geegj

As an artist, Shannon started off as a watercolorist, winning awards and showing with the National Academy of Design in New York and the San Diego Watercolor Society, among others.

Mosaic sculpture – “Still Standing” mosaic – geegj

In the 1980s, inspired by such artists as Fra Angelica, Francis Bacon, and especially Joseph Cornell, Shannon began to create many-layered assemblages, taking part in group and one-woman shows at the Dickson Art Center, UCLA, the Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum, Whittier College, and numerous galleries in Los Angeles.

Mosaic – Still Standing – Shannon Landis Hansen – Arts Council of New Orleans – geegj

Shannon’s current work, incorporating ceramic figures, mosaic tiles, plates, cups and saucers, is clearly an outgrowth and continuation of her previous interests. Reflecting her fascination with what might be called “transitoriness,” how things change over time, these lamps, tables, chairs and fountains explore how found objects can actually rediscover new life and beauty under her hands.   Shannon Landis Hansen
