Robert's Biography


I have been a Mosaic Artist since 1995. I'm mostly self-taught, learning by doing and picking up a few tips from books. In 2006 I was fortunate to be able to study in Venice with world-renowned master mosaicists Lucio Orsoni and Giovanni Cucco, earning a Master of Mosaic qualification.

I'm inspired by the mosaics of the Romans and Byzantines, by architecture and by artists such as Klimt, Goldsworthy and Rothko as well as the natural world around me and the materials themselves - various types of glass, marble, metal leafs etc. I'm especially excited by the possibilities inherent in combining stained glass with mosaic technique.
