From Pieces to Peace: Discover the Soulful Art of Mosaics
One of my favorite parts of mosaic making is watching raw materials come together to make astonishing art pieces. As the piece grows it’s amazing to see a beautiful final product emerge. I also like that almost any object can be used in a mosaic and it is a very forgiving art form that can allow for imperfections. When I teach a class I get to watch as the process unfolds for others, it is a very rewarding experience.
I work on fostering a supportive, friendly and relaxing environment. Participants can let their creativity flow while enjoying camaraderie with others.
I still make and sell mosaics at OVA Arts in Ojai and The YES Store in Santa Barbara. You can also text me if you are interested in a piece to buy or if you’d like to commission me to make one with your specifications.

In-Person Classes: I offer small group settings in my home in Ventura County. All materials are provided. Choose from a large variety of materials. I’ve acquired over 30 years worth of vintage jewelry and buttons, semi-precious stones, shells, drift wood, millefiori, dichroic glass, homemade fused glass, rocks, beads, tiles, and metal just to name a few. You’ll learn how to cut, place, grout, finish and take home a meaningful mosaic heart you’ve made yourself.
Private Workshops: I can be hired out for any groups that would like to add some creative and bonding time to their agenda.

This tutorial was so fun! Thanks to Sherri’s soothing voice walking me through each step. Let me address the kit itself first, then the video. This kit is full of gorgeous material. The beads selected were the perfect colors to make this heart design pop! Turquoise, Blues, Aqua—this is my happy place. And the choices had just the right selection of shiny, glittery, flat, dark, light, and size differences. Also the kit included everything I needed so I didn’t have to go digging into my other supplies. That’s much appreciated for this busy working mom. I love having the ability to sit by myself at my computer and stop and start, rewind when I need to hear something over again, or watch how her hands are doing the movements.
