Beth holds a Master of Science in Horticulture from Colorado State University.

I am inspired by nature---both the land and the sea. The process of creating art from many pieces, or tesserae, is stimulating, challenging and meditative. Please join me in the studio!

The mosaic studio, Sun Mountain Mosaics, is an historic and enjoyable space with Beth, a warmhearted mosaic teacher to guide you. And, just outside, you can wander the truly beautiful gardens; you’ll remember the experience as one of peace and artistic expression.

As someone completely new to creating mosaics, I enjoyed learning the various techniques involved and using my own creative juices to make my own piece of art."

The most gratifying steps I learned in the Mosaic Workshop are cutting the tiles and scoring the sheet glass to fit my design. I had fun making my mosaics and felt accomplishment.
