Jean Pugh’s Mosaics
Apr 16th
Jean Pugh (no relation to John Pugh of my previous post) photographed the progression of her last mosaic piece. I’ve always been a fan of seeing or reading about the process an artist uses to get their final piece of art work. Not only can you learn from it, but it usually is very cool. The following are Jean’s pictures and descriptions used with her permission.
“The start of Regal Red (rough sketch for Stained Glass Mosaic). Collaborative piece by Artists: Jean V. Pugh and Andreas Goff. I met Andreas in February 2010, at the Cox Communications Black History Arts Festival in Pensacola, FL He creates beautiful African and Native American Heads. After seeing my mosaics, he asked me if I’d like to work on a piece together. To make a long story short. He created four heads for me to work with. This is the beginning of Regal Red.”
“Sketch on Cabinet door.”
“I did a rough sketch on a plain cabinet door and attached the head to it using Weldbond Adhesive.”
“Further along and trying to decide on how to place the jewelry.”
“Let the GROUTING begin!!! This is my least favorite part of creating mosaics.”
“Still had to attach the jewelry. The hardest part is over!”
Jean added the jewelry after everything was dry. Thanks Jean for a look into creating mosaics.
