Donna Slawsky Mosaics, Holmes Beach, FL
My artwork is influenced by materials in the form of fine china or stained glass. The colors and patterns in drive the artist to design and execute mosaics, both functional (as in her trays and mirrors) and artful. The sights, colors, and bird life on Anna Maria Island are evident in Donna's work. Attention to detail, especially in mosaics of birds, is driven by a love and admiration for the natural world. I love to create art from broken objects that might otherwise be discarded. Creating beauty from these shards of china and glass is a metaphor for piecing together a beautiful life from experiences both difficult and wonderful.
I also conduct mosaics classes in my home and am available for custom work such as backsplashes and creating art from your chipped and broken china. (Think about creating art from your grandmother's chipped china)!
