Founding member of the Mosaic Society of Philadelphia, past president,
and current member
After attending Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Carol became a painter and potter before beginning mosaics. Her shift to mosaics is the perfect niche for her love of color, tactile nature, and artistic background. Mosaics allow her to “paint with glass” as her vision evolves using stained glass and millefiori in her mosaics to create her specialty, portraiture, and offer commissions. She especially likes working in stained glass using an impressionistic style.
Carol’s teaching method is to understand her students’ vision and help them grow while developing their own style. She offers mosaic workshops locally in her hometown, nationwide, worldwide, and courses online. Carol teaches locally at Main Line School Night in Radnor, PA and Schoolhouse Center in Folsom, PA. She also offers online courses at Mosaic Arts Online, art retreats, art tours, and weeklong workshops around the world through her company Worldwide Mosaic Art Workshops, Retreats, and Tours. This includes small group travels to such places as Italy, Spain, Mexico, Costa Rica, Morocco, and France.
