Mosaic Wings with White Iridescent Stained Glass

August 31, 2018 in Mosaic Wings, Private Commissions~Mosaic | Tags: angel wings mosaic, dogs memorial, mosaic angel wings, Mosaic Wings, pet memorial, shimmery angel wings, white irridescent stained glass | Leave a comment

These white iridescent mosaic wings with glass raindrops were commissioned by a client who wanted to memorialize her beloved dog who had recently passed away. As a long time dog owner it was an honor for me to work on this very special project. They look stunning and right at home in her beautiful New Orleans inspired bedroom.

Each wing measures approximately 30″L x 15″W x 1″H. Materials: wood, white iridescent stained glass, glass raindrop ornaments, adhesive, tile grout. They were completed in August 2018 © Amy Lou Fancher, all rights reserved. A few years later my client asked me to create a sculptural mosaic heart with the phrase “I carry your heart” to complete her vision for honoring her beloved dog.

Mosaic Jeweled Crown with Blue Jays

June 5, 2018 in New Mosaic Work | Tags: blue jays, china, citron, crown, crystal rhinestones, emerald, glass crystal gems, gold crown, jeweled crown, montana sapphire, mosaic, mosaic crown, opal, royal crown, shiny | Leave a comment

This mosaic jeweled crown with blue jays looks great as a stand alone piece, or can be used to compliment an existing element, such as the silver mosaic angel wings. I’ve long been a fan of the crown motif and have often used it in my work over the years, but I’m really enjoying creating these elaborately embellished crowns with glass crystal jewels.

Materials Used: particle board, foam insulation, styrofoam balls, vintage blue jays china, amber mirrored glass, assorted glass crystal gems and rhinestones, glue, sanded tile grout

Measurements: approximately 15″L x 15″W x 3″H

Mosaic Birds with Stamped Words

August 26, 2015 in New Mosaic Work | Tags: bird, crown, glitter tile, mixed media, mosaic, pink, shiny birds, the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs, turquoise blue | Leave a comment

I’ve been making these sweet little mosaic birds since around 2005. They have evolved over time and no longer have pipe cleaner feet…after all, when you’re flying it’s more aerodynamic to have your feet tucked against your body, right? I’ve recently started making the wings out of brass, copper or aluminum that I stamp with a special phrase and some are also adorned with a metal crown. Check out my new Etsy shop, Amy Lou Fancher Mosaics to see what birds are available.
