Mosaics "taking something broken and making sense of it " -KS1985

Great video Sonia!

Promo>SM

Enjoyed the interview. The part about, The Enjoyment of Hunting Material, was especially fun to hear.

Wow! ❤❤❤

This might sound a little crazy but I had no idea mosaics could be so beautiful. You and your art are so inspiring. Thank you for showing us the possibilities.

As an AML /leukemia patient - your floating looking cells are just perfect. So calming. They look cellular indeed. Bravo. Great work.

Do you know what type of tile were used in Tama Zoo animals in Japan?

Thank you for your inspiring talk. When I get stuck, I sometimes think that I’m alone. It’s nice to know that others are “together” with me.

Sumerians are Assyrians ppl and we the Assyrians are still existed

How much of meter?

Thank you for this video. I'm using it with my Frontier Girls troop tomorrow evening. We're working on our mosaics badge and this allows us to virtually visit you the artist. We'll also spend a little time on your website. Thank you for explaining your process so well. And I just realized you are in Dallas. We are in the area. Hitting your website to see more. Thank you!

Using tessera cutting machines doesn't feel like any kind of betrayal to me. Like many mosaic artists, after years of punishing repetitive hammering, nippers, and hand tools I have developed both arthritis and tendonitis, and I thankfully use whatever I require to extend my creativity without guilt or considering my art compromised. Now grinders, lazer cutting and other power tools I can understand; but, please clarify the difference...us 'older' artists may need a few short cuts, but we're still the same dedicated artists we always were. We may use a few 'advances' in cutting our tessera, but we would never compromise our art.

I’ve watched all your videos Sonia and you are by far the most enjoyable to watch about mosaics. I am new to mosaics but I too feel that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. Thank you for taking the time to share your life story with mosaics with all of us. Your work is beautiful and inspiring no doubt. I hope that some day I can make something as beautiful as your work. You are very inspiring. With ❤️Star

Loved yr work as I'm in luv wit mosaic work

Quite honestly did you have a favorable opinion of the way you were approached by FedEx, or did you have to learn to appreciate them differently after you're initial opinion. I figure it took you max a couple days to lay out some pebbles, just to get a photographer for a thousand dollars to take some pictures. Another 4000 to blow the pictures up and another 20thpusand to print them with another 30thpusand for brackets to support. How much now did FedEx pay you for this?

The woman built in with her own two hands its an insult that they settled with just a picture of what she layer out on a flat floor. They should have figured a way to put up and withhold the weight of the work up on their wall.

You're my absolute favorite mosaic artist. I love your work

I would purchase it for the packaging alone . I love Sonia's work.

I loved you and you're mother

This is very interesting, I thoroughly enjoyed the videos you put together so far. May I suggest maybe doing a small project and record it for ASMR? I think it would be fascinating to watch one put together in one sitting.

Awesome project! Love the collaboration.👏🏽👏🏽🤗🤗🤗

Absolutely beautiful!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎉🎉🎉 "New Art emerging from existing Art..." Excellent FedEx!!👏🏽👏🏽🎉🎉🎉🎉

So interesting!!!

Sincerity!!! That is what I heard her say! She was sincere!!!

Where is your studio address in Dallas?

You are a brilliant mosaic artist thanks for sharing

Sonia is so talented. Beautiful idea. Fed ex

Beautiful work! Couple quick questions - what is the working time for your thinset? And is it possible to use Unsanded mortar instead of thinset?

Hi - awesome! Where do you get your tiles? Also, what is the reason for gluing on the tiles with the underside facing up? Thank you for your response.

thanks i want to know more about mosaic

Extraordinaria, su obra y su técnica. Quisiera saber si el papel sobre el que pegó las tecelas se quita o queda incluido sobre el soporte final

hi

What's the advantage of gluing them to the paper first?

Your work is what inspired me to do my first mosaic, and I have continued from there on. Hearing you speak inspires me even more to keep creating. Thank you for all you have done for me and the art world.

what is the tile on? plywood, wood, or ? painted surface? It is a uniform color so...? thankz

I especially liked the parts of your talks where you get really honest and talk about the frustration. I know I really care about what I am doing when it makes me boil over like that ;-). Someday I hope to have a stash like yours too! Wow.

where do you all get mosaic tiles from? I havn't come across anything reasonable on the internet as yet, as a beginner I would like to start cheap on materials..any help would be great!!

It is because of your work that I decided to take a break from oil painting and try something different. Now I am addicted. Tile all over my house. So much fun!! Your work is amazing. I have a large collection of fossils, rocks and minerals etc which is what led me to your mosaics. It takes a long time to collect all the materials which I find a exciting challenge (like you said) Thank you for all the inspiration!

Hi Sonia!!! Your work is AMAZING!!!!! I'm totally in love with it!!! I am from Brazil (and live in Brazil). Starting with mosaic now... from what I could see, it is a lonnnng journey!!! But very worthwhile!!! Now, I am focusing in getting the best tools I can. Have bought the Montolit and the Leponitt wheeled nippers. Whould like to know if you can advise me which tile nipper I shall buy. Can you help me with this information?! Thank you so much!!! May God bless your tallent!!!

She does a beautiful pieces of art, amazing!

Your vids help me understand. What more can I say? Thank you!

Sonho um dia conhecer e fazer um curso com Sonia King, tudo que faz me encanta ! Um dia ,...um dia , realizarei meu sonho !

Thank you, everyone!

I love your videos and your voice is so very calming your art is absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing

Hi Sonia! We met in Ravenna 2015. It was nice to meet you there. I already had your book at that time, but it was such a pleasure to see you and of course your mosaic there in Ravenna. It's such a different experience if you see a mosaic on a picture or if you really stand in front of a mosaic. I wish you all the best. Best regards from Slovenia.

This was so inspiring! Thank you! I loved what you shared about the way you create and of course seeing your gorgeous work was a total treat. All the best! Gabrielle

perfect studio
