A mosaic is a piece of art or image made from the assemblage of small
pieces of colored glass, stone, or other materials. It is often used in
decorative art or as interior decoration. Most mosaics are made of
small, flat, roughly square, pieces of stone or glass of different
colors, known as tesserae. Currently, mosaics have developed into a
popular craft and art, and are not limited to professionals. Today's
artisans and crafters work with stone, ceramics, shells, art glass,
mirror, beads, and even odd items like doll parts, pearls, or
photographs. While ancient mosaics tended to be architectural, modern
mosaics are found covering everything from park benches and flowerpots
to guitars and bicycles. Items can be as small as an earring or as large
as a house. Here are some example of mosaic art ideas that might be inspire you to bring more bright ideas of decoration to your home decor and your garden.
