My name isAnne Marie Price, and I am a mosaic artist and mosaic art teacher in Southern California. I love to show work-in-progress photos of what I create.

I’ve been creating mosaic art since 2003 and regularly share my process and progress on social media, enjoying the feedback I receive while completing each step to assemble a piece of mosaic art.

Each photo shows the work put into creating a 24” x 24” mosaic using stained glass, glass beads, and Venetian gold Smalti.

You can follow more of my work on my website and on all my social media platforms.

The hands are challenging for me, so I usually leave them until I’m ready to work on them

It can be a slow process, but I love every step I take

An interesting thing about stained glass is how it photographs differently in various lighting conditions

I’ve completed as much as I can, and now I’ll cut away my template drawing so I can transfer it to my permanent substrate

Transfer was successful!

One side is almost done!

On to the next side. Mary’s face and hands are now grouted with different colors of grout. The rest will be grouted once I finish adhering my pieces of glass
