Featured Mosaic Artist - Gary Drostle |
I am honored to present this month's featured Mosaic Artist, Gary Drostle.
Gary is a professional mosaic artist with over 20 years experience & the current President of the British Association of Modern Mosaic.
Gary was presented the 2006 Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust Award for craftspeople of outstanding merit and professional development. This award will take Gary to the 'Master in Mosaic' course at the great Venetian Smalti works of the Orsoni family in Venice. Gary will be staying at the luxurious Domus Orsoni which is located on the factory grounds. He will study the traditional methods of smalti glass production and work in the material with the guidance of the Venetian Masters. Congratulations Gary!

'Q & A' with Gary Drostle... |
 |
Gary is fabulously busy, with multiple projects on the go but was sweet enough to indulge me, answering a few quick questions...
- m.a.s. After you've finished a mosaic, do you ever see little things you wish you'd done differently?
- Gary All I see is all the things I should have done differently
- m.a.s. Glad to know I'm not the only one, you have no idea how much better that makes me feel! ;-)

CALL FOR ENTRIES |
Description: Conflict - whether at work, in the family, with friends, or in the community – is an everyday part of life. Resolving those differences in a productive way, without harming others or ourselves is a constant challenge. While each of us routinely solves disagreements on our own, practitioners in the sponsoring organizations devote their energies to assisting people in this endeavor. This exhibit seeks to visually explore and celebrate the art of moving from conflict to peace in any realm. |
