Christa Lamb is a mosaic artist from Cottonwood Heights, Utah, who has ordered small shard faces from my Etsy shop several times. She sent me a message last week saying, “I thought you might be interested in seeing how I use your beautiful faces in my work,” and she attached some photos.
I was amazed at her work. I often wonder how artists use these faces, but never expected to see them incorporated into such fantastic mosaics!
I asked her if I could share them with SHARDS readers, and she agreed – thanks, Christa!
She sent several more examples, all of which use mixed media materials to create rich panoramas in tiles, glass and found objects. I love these fabulous “storyboards.”
Here are some more of Christa’s mosaics:
The details are endlessly intriguing.
Look at this mysterious mixture, below!
Both of you are amazing.

Thank you for sharing Lyn – it is no surprise that your creations inspire others! I’m still wishing for a trip to San Antonio someday soon!
I would LOVE that!
oh, these are a fantastic use of your faces! Christa definitely sparks ones imagination. The two of you paired up on a collaboration would be amazing!!
That would be fun – I’ve never really done a lot of mosaics, although my friend David Chidgey taught me to appreciate them!
I’d call this the perfect example of a mutual admiration society … thanks to both of you for sharing!

I really like Christa art…love mixed media mosaics. Thanks for sharing!
