Check out my short video below about a large public garden project my classmates are involved in for the Texas State Fair. I did not take part in the project, but I am so excited for everyone involved. They did an amazing job and I hope to create a longer video soon that will show the flowers in the garden. This video shows some in progress shots along with an interview with project organizer Katrina Doran.

Shannon Leigh Saunders recently had her mosaic work showcased by Cebolla Fine Flowers, the showing runs through Sept. 25th. I checked out this high end retail opening last week and was very impressed with both the quality of Shannon's work and also how beautiful her pieces looked in this large upscale retail environment. Shannon's work varied in subject matter, she was showing floral pieces, abstracts and even a portrait. What did not vary at all was her attention to detail and craftsmanship. Her work is just exquisite. I am afraid my small photos of the show postcard does not do her work justice.
The piece below was one of my favorites that Shannon was showing. I found this nice image over at flickr via member: allitscrackeduptobe.

I'm always amazed when a mosaic artist I've never seen before comes into my radar. I think I know everybody in this small community, but it's always a nice surprise to see someone new to me! Must now go explore more of her work. Thanks!
Hmm... can't find a web site... she needs one :)
Christine ... I know. Many of my favorite local mosaic artists do not have websites set up yet. It drives me crazy. After setting up that wordpress blog in like 20 minutes for the mosaic-swap I am telling people that are not tech savvy to use wordpress for their art sites ... it is better than nothing and I have seen some artists making great use of the multiple page feature. It is so easy to use and set up.
Hi Rebecca! Just found your blog page. Thanks for the post! I have set up a mosiac page on Facebook - Shannon Leigh Saunders Mosaics. I will keep it updated with things. My piece, "The Pearl" was accepted in SAMA this year!
Congrats Shannon! Wow. Ok, I am off to find you on FB.
Yay! Glad you found the blog, Shannon. Now I will go check out your FB page, too!
