Michele Wilcox:

I am a mosaic artist and teacher based in Teignmouth.

Mosaic is an excellent medium for using recycled materials, such as broken crockery and household tiles, as these have more character than the standard glass tiles bought from a shop. I also use stained glass offcuts, and glass pebbles.

'Elemental Rhapsody'
Stained glass mosaic on a recycled acoustic guitar, representing the Earth and the sea.

'Hearts and Minds'
Mosaic bowl (tiles and bowl bought from the recycling centre)

'Baroque Garden'
