Russian born mosaicist Irina Charny who now live in California  creating amazing mosaic paintings. Irina was  inspired by the rich history of the medium, she strive to build a unique
 and personal art form on the base of classical mosaic. This medium gives her a chance to explore color, shape, and texture, to 
experiment with different materials, and satisfy the passion to 
integrate unrelated small bits into a single work of art. In addition to 
traditional mosaic tesserae, she is incorporate unusual materials in her work like a 
 mirror, pebbles, found objects, beads, buttons, wire, handmade ceramic 
pieces, and broken plates. Her mosaic represents harmony between Man and Nature,  bright, vivid, filled with plot content.
