\"20140314-211047.jpg\"<\/a>A nice thud landed on my doormat this week, a double edition from BAMM <\/a>(the British mosaic association) with lots of lovely mosaic eye candy, informative articles and mosaic news from around the UK. This edition of Grout magazine includes an article I wrote about the process and challenges of making the Topps Tiles mosaic tree (see here<\/a> and here<\/a>) and the journal, Andamento, carries four in depth articles on varied topics.<\/p>\n

I particularly enjoyed the interview with Elaine Goodwin<\/a>, one of the UK’s leading mosaicists whom I met at my first ever exhibition 10 years ago. Then a slightly nervous newcomer, she was a real encouragement to me. I was particularly interested to read about her own journey in mosaics and the depth with which she has pursued the concepts of light, reflectivity and spirituality within her work.<\/p>\n

The other article that captured my attention was by the lovely Nancie Mills Pipgras from the internationally acclaimed Mosaic Art Now<\/a> (worth regular visits and subscribing to the newsletter) who tells the story of the incredible community mosaic venture spearheaded by Isadora Paz Lopez<\/a> in Chile where 4000 square metres of urban concrete jungle has been covered in exquisite mosaic in an extraordinary feat of artistic vision and endurance.<\/p>\n

Do click on the above links as they provide varied inspiration for mosaic makers and lovers – and you can get these publications by becoming a member of BAMM – it is open to all irrespective of level of mosaic practice of country or residence.<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n
