ALOHA!

Paper Mosaics
(Upcycled Art)

My paper mosaics are made by using recycled magazine ads to create the look of hand-made and hand-glazed tiles on deep canvas. They are UV-lacquered to completely seal the work and eliminate susceptibility to humidity or fading. I add a three-dimensional look using a plasticized paper glue on the finished piece. Each original work of art has an inspirational quote written around the side. This little guy to the right is Ollie. He's one of my favorite images. He's just so darned happy.

NO SHIPPING FEES! Yep. I've had such a good response this whole year (2020) even though I couldn't really do festivals that I want to make my art available to you from the comfort of your own couch. How cool is that? And affordable, so no shipping fees. Unless it's international, then I have add a little...

My gift to you, for 2021. Yay!

IN ADDITION, ALL ORDERS WILL RECEIVE A FREE PAPER MOSAIC MAGNET!!

If you're buying a piece of art as a gift, I can mail it directly to them, saving you a trip to the post office!
Just let me know their address, and I'll send it to them.
