Artist Bio
Mosaics on the Lake
By Lisa Volatile
I am a self- taught mosaic artist living in Erie, Pa. With my husband and son. I have a 23 year old daughter and four grandchildren. I have always been interested in the arts/ all types and mediums. I really began getting my inspiration when I moved away for a period of time and lived in Northern California, outside San Francisco. The arts are VERY prevalent there. Lot’s of natural beauty! I then moved to Virginia….. the Shenandoah Valley, beautiful country! From there it was off to Philadelphia, Pa. Where my husband was originally from, again….. A very art friendly area. After that I found my way back home with inspiration and time to start creating. I have been working with glass, mosaic tiles and other mixes… found items, gems, beads, natural things such as stone, shell, driftwood. I am also working with pique assiette ( broken pieces of pottery, stoneware shards etc.) I have found myself creating original…… one of a kind mirrors, picture frames, glass platters, wall hangings, trinket boxes and now I am moving into plant stands and other furniture pieces. I am very excited about this journey I’m on…….. creating from the depths of my soul….. Out of pain, out of love, out of happiness……. This is where true art comes from.
Peace……
