Mosaic Alternative? A new concept for our mosaic shapes has arrived... Why not paint and adorn our beautiful high quality mosaic shapes that are made from 99% recycled material?  They are more substantial and durable than canvas and allow you to paint beyond a rectangle.  We offer over 250 shapes for painting, mosaic and decorating however your imagination sees fit.  We now offer 12 exciting new shapes designed by the amazing mixed media artist Lorena Angulo.  SEE ALL 12 HERE... Paint, Mosaic & More... Get Creative with your "Mosaic" Shapes! As mentioned above, you can use your mosaic shapes in so many ways.  In addition to using acrylic paint, Lorena created fun and funky accent pieces using tin purchased at her local hardware store.  Mix acrylic, mosaics, tin and more! Who is Lorena Angulo? We love Lorena and her art - you will too! Lorena was born in Mexico where she had a firsthand opportunity to experience the diverse cultural and artistic expressions of her country while traveling around Mexico and now residing in San Antonio, TX.  Lorena’s work is full of her culture and traditions from Mexico, every piece has a story to tell.  Maria is an amazing jewelry artist, as well as many other mediums! All shapes are made from 99.9% recycled materials, are formaldehyde free (unlike traditional MDF) and are sold unfinished.

Celebrating my journey and recovery: Soulful Reliquary

Tomorrow (April 5) will be a year from the date I was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer. Although it was a little shocking to found this out I also knew this type of cancer had a bigger positive outcome and I was ready for the battle.

The best way I have to express my feelings is through my art and I wanted to make a piece of jewelry that will be a symbol of my journey and recovery during 2013; I am still working on getting my energy better but I am sure I will get there very soon.

The symbols I wanted to have in my pendant have been with me during my whole journey as an artists and I have represented them a lot in my work. Now they have a stronger meaning for me and this makes my work have more soul.

The tree of life on top with the Milagro heart is the representation of the family and friends's support during this journey with the heart symbolizing all the love I have received and also my own love and passion for my family and life. The two birds looking at the tree represent my husband and me; he was and still is my best friend and companion but they also represent my two kids, my great loves in my life!

Thank You to all for your love and positive energy!!!

The big butterfly in the center represents my thyroid but mostly is a representation of my transformation, faith and soul. the butterfly is the bigger element because I am stronger and ready to fly again!

The pearls are the tears I had shared with my love ones but they were not only sad tears they also symbolized the happiness tears we had when I was told after my surgery that they were able to take all the cancer out. The red coral are a strong statement symbolizing my passion, love and courage.
