Thank you for visiting my shop!
I am always creating new mosaics but If you see a design that you would like in a different size or colour, just message me and I’ll get back to you.
I’ve been musing over dandelions for a while, trying to work out how I would construct the shapes. Many sketches later I came upon this formation which I think imitates the seed head’s transparency.

Full description
This original botanical art is created in mosaic and features an intricate dandelion design on a deep blue background. I like to make, what many call weeds, the star of the show. The dandelion seed head is a popular subject but the humble flower is often overlooked. To recreate these sunny flowers I've used Emaux De Briare, bright yellow tile, forming them with thin cuts. The seed heads are a stylistic representation of the fluffy spheres, giving an impression of transparency.
I use beautiful, quality tiles; Winckelmans, Cinca and Emaux de Briare, which are matt ceramic and come in a range of tones. Most of my work is in a muted palette but I have recently embraced some more vivid tones. I hand cut each piece of tessera to create intricate images inspired by nature. The mosaic is mounted on a wooden canvas and the sides are part tiled to frame the plaque and give depth and is complete with hanging wire.
Measures 26cm x 21cm x 3cm
Due to the wooden frame, this art is suitable for display indoors only.
Each wall plaque is one of a kind but I am able to make more in a similar colour palette on request. I am also open to commissions, just contact me for a chat.
