I'm Claire Perkins, aka the Artful Alchemist...
Alchemy is a process of transformation. It’s the transmutation of discarded or ordinary things into something more precious. For me, creating mixed media mosaic is the artistic embodiment of that idea. It is a way of bringing disparate parts together into a greater, more beautiful whole.
This is the alchemy of mosaic:
the transformation of ordinary things into mixed media art imbued with story and soul.
