About the Artist
Mark is always learning new mosaic methods, and has installed one-of-a-kind artwork in schools, libraries and hospitals. He enjoys crafting his talents to fit the needs of individual schools.
Teaching Philosophy
Mosaic combines divergent pieces to make a cohesive vision. Mark's residency combines each student's intrinsic skills with the design and creation of a legacy piece of artwork for the school and the community.
Testimonial
"This wonderful art work...added a touch of happiness to the school and we will remember you forever." --4th grader, Lake Oswego
Program Description
Mark will work with the staff to develop a vision for their permanent mosaic installation, whether could be placed indoors or out. The students have the opportunity to work in stained glass, fused glass or ceramic. He will teach the students about color, pattern and movement in a piece of art. But more importantly, the process will demonstrate how communication and collaboration can create outstanding work. Each student will feel a sense of ownership and pride in their contribution to this legacy project.
