A scroll through Jon Foreman’s Instagram proves just how prolific the Wales-based artist has been this year—he’s collaborated with artist James Brunt (previously) on a few projects, too. From coils arranged in gradients to whirling patterns embedded in the sand, Foreman’s land art sprawls across beaches and grassy patches in an impressive number of locations. Each work is precise in composition, perfectly matching size, hue, and shape into hypnotic works that contrast the man-made construction with their organic backdrops. More
What colour grout? Light grey?
Mosaics have been used for centuries as a means of art and expression. They are often seen in public places such as parks, squares, and some homes. There is something about their bright colours and patterns that makes people happy.

Hawaii... she has a fire in her belly, the angels' breath for breeze, and the song of her sea keeps calling me home. This little piece was inspired by the Hawaiian Islands, which to me have an immediately elemental essence, and whose beauty is both subtle and severe at the same time. What I was trying to achieve was an abstract of the island's geography/landscape. Can you see it? The Big Island is on fire within, its earth active and still forming and becoming. The sea is ever-present, and the air is always moving so that you feel and hear that which you cannot see. The lava rock landscape is in stark contrast to the tropical paradisal beauty, and its harshness seems alien, as if of another planet. I did not set out to use 30+ different materials. I was primarily driven by the color, texture, and desired andamento. I had a basic pattern, which was slightly modified as I went, but there was a lot of spontaneity going on. Though I had a basic idea of what I wanted to do, I did not have each layer/section completely figured out. So... this piece was a bit of an expedition.

Artist Matthew Simmonds creates miniature sculptures that are meticulously carved out of stone and marble. As a trained stonemason, Simmonds focuses on architectural stone carving with a special interest in sacred architecture. His small-scale artworks are self-described ‘internal worlds’ and each one of the pieces explores themes such as the play of light and shadow […]
Detail of a Roman floor mosaic depicting a border of an inhabited acanthus spiral (rinceau) including two birds and an insect -- perhaps a grasshopper -- originally part of a bath. The motif of the "inhabited" floral spiral is popular in the later republic. For examples in relief sculpture compare with details from the Ara Pacis (13-9 BCE). The mosaic is dated second to early first century BCE (according to the Capitoline Museums); Ant. Com. Inv. 32359 From the Via S. Lorenzo in Panisperna (1888). For the grasshopper as a decorative motif within floral decoration, see examples from the Ara Pacis: www.flickr.com/photos/roger_ulrich/6268808862/

Jon Foreman arranges his seashell coils and stone gradients knowing that they’ll be washed away by the tide or kicked over by passersby. The artist’s ephemeral land art is hypnotic and entrancing in its precision, arranged in perfectly concentric circles and exacting compositions depressed in the sand. His large-scale pieces transform blank beaches and forest expanses into artworks that evidence both environmental diversity and continuity. Based in Wales, the artist began creating his nature-based work while in college. More

Name: Barbara Benson Keith Website: www.barbarakeithdesigns.com Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/barbarakeithdesigns Blog: barbarakeithdesigns.blogspot.com Email: [email protected] What kind of mosaics do you make? Stained glass mosaics When did you start making mosaics? 2004 How did you get into mosaics? I took a community education class about stained glass windows. I had a pile of scrap glass, so a few years later, I decided one day to make a mosaic. I didn’t know how, and didn’t even consult a book, I just did what felt right. What inspires you? Nature, people, animals, the work of other artists How did you develop your style? I’m self taught, and I resist taking classes so what I do is really mine. How did you learn to make mosaics? Guessed. How do you work best? During the day, listening to an audio book. How do you approach a mosaic? For me the hardest part is deciding what to do. Once I have that figured out, I get to it. I am very focused while I work and I don’t really take breaks or get distracted unless it’s lunch time! What do you do with your mosaics once you finish? Sell them, hopefully! What have you learned? I’ve learned things about myself, like I’m a jumper. Even if I don’t know how to do something, I’ll say yes and jump in and figure out how to do it after that. How do you fit mosaics into your personal/family life? I’ve got a wonderfully supportive hubby! This is my job and I feel very lucky. Where do you work? I have a studio in the basement with a nice big southern exposure window. In the summer it’s cool down there and in the winter it’s warm. What is your favorite thing about working as an artist? The freedom! I used to teach elementary school, which was very rewarding but demanding and stressful. I was always sick with colds and strep and had to drive to work in the cold and dark and snow… You know how it is! Now I can sleep in or take a day off. I set my schedule and get the work done when I want to do it. My commute is about 10 seconds. I love that! Have you ever done public art, community art, worked with children, etc…? Doing public art is my passion! Over the years, I’ve been doing more and more public art and I love it! I love the challenges, and I love knowing that lots of people will see my work. This year I’ve done a lot of work for clinics and hospitals. I recently finished a big project up in Bemidji. I designed the 15,000 sf terrazzo floor for the new convention center/hockey arena.
