Mosaic art has ancient roots and a rich cultural heritage.  I spent many years living around the  Mediterranean and the Middle East absorbing this  beautiful "lost art".  I particularly love the Greco-Roman style that was very popular 2,000 years ago.  I work with marble because of the beauty of the stone, its natural coloring and its durability  Designing and making mosaics for over twelve years has given me the opportunity to create many exciting projects.  My mosaics have a dual role of being both decorative and functional. A marble "rug" can be used as flooring, a wall hanging or a table. 

The process is very intensive.  I cut marble slabs with a saw and then I hand cut each individual piece according to the size needed. A series of steps follow, depending on whether the piece is a table, a floor insert or a wall installation. The procedure I use also insures that the piece is flat for walking on.

I also design and execute large pebble mosaic pathways and floors.  I use smooth river rock, on its side, to create tight geometric or undulating patterns.  This is also an ancient technique dating back to Classical Greece.  The pebbles are particularly suited to the outdoors and are used for covering large areas in patterns.
