Still Life Flowers

June 26, 2020

When we are in our booth at in-person art shows, many customers ask us for art that fits certain spaces in their house. These are substantial panels on their own, but when grouped together in this set of three, it brings life to wall space above a headboard, dining room buffet, sofa wall, or bathroom garden tub. Our ceramic and mosaic artwork is well-suited to damp bathroom spaces and a single panel is perfectly proportioned to the area above a toilet tank. We think you can transform a neutral or all black and white decor with this uplifting and colorful modern stylized still life. 

The series of photos below illuminates our process. We hand-sculpt these whimsical tiles from Indiana stoneware clay, then bisque fire, glaze, fire again, and add semiprecious stones and grout for a mosaic effect. The colorful tiles are then set in painted black wood frames. We sign the artwork on the back.

You can purchase a single panel or the set of three here.

Nature, texture, and color inspire us both. We love to incorporate these elements in our ceramic art work to create beautiful things.

We are Romy Kissel and Clare Backer Bies and we happily come each day to our studio, a 100+ year old grainery, in our mid-western hometown of Jasper, Indiana.
