Posted by Amanda Edwards on Friday, September 30, 2011,

They're all in place, and the background started to appear today.


Grouting is underway on my Barbara Bush Children's Hospital Mural as well! Photos to come over the next few days!

I finished up my tree house mosaic yesterday... 6 grout colors later. Yes... there are 6 grout colors on that piece. I was commissioned by Latitude Gallery (Newbury Street, Boston) to do this piece.

About Me


Amanda Edwards I'm a stained glass & mixed media mosaic artist living on a beautiful beach in Southern Maine, with my husband & two children. Simply put, I love glass. I love the textures, variety of colors, shapes, sizes, reflections, even the sound it makes when I’m scoring and cutting it. Glass allows me to take a thousand little pieces of color and turn them into a flowing representation of my very active imagination.

Please come over and follow me on Facebook! Thank you!
