| | | | | NEW!!! 4" tile whimsy

| | | | | COMMISSIONED WORK
Inspired by the poetry tiles, the text on these tiles was supplied by the clients. They are either excerpts from a favorite poem or their own original text(enhanced with my original illustrations). One of the tiles is a whimsical portrait of a client's two dogs (Maltese and ShihTsu). Any motif can be requested for a commissioned tile as well as the mounting medium (frame, box, etc.) |
| | | | | POETRY IMAGES
8" ceramic tile squares set in black wooden frames ready for hanging. They contain excerpts from poems that I found particularly moving and are illustrated with what I saw in my imagination when I read the poem. |
| | | | | FRAMED WALL TILES
8" and 6" ceramic tiles mounted in wooden frames and ready for hanging on the wall. Most frames are black, and a few are rosewood. |
| | | | | SOCIAL COMMENTARY
6" ceramic tiles with quotes by famous people which are still relevant today |
| | | | | | | | GOETHE'S FAUST TRIVETS
Goethe's Faust was written in the early to mid 1800's. Its message is timeless. I have chosen several quotes that are particulary meaningful today and written them on tiles that are mounted in black metal trivet frames. The quotes are in the original German (with an English translation on the back of the tile). Since the quotes are so powerful, I felt that an illustration would distract from the message and chose, instead, to enhance the tiles with abstract color shadings. |
