Description

A found object mosaic by local artist, Carla Schaeffer. This china bouquet is approximately 9? tall x 5? wide x 3? deep and is a wall hangning piece. 

 

West Cape May artist Carla Schaeffer's unique found art mosaic floral bouquets, ceramics, and jewelry are a visual illustration of many of the things that make her happiest in life. An avid re-cycler/re-user/re-claimer, Carla enjoys piecing things together, and takes every opportunity to use vintage materials in her artwork. Her wire crocheted jewelry often incorporates freshwater pearls and shells, which remind her of her long walks by the sea looking for treasures. Her love of gardening and anything floral or botanical is almost always reflected in her mosaic assemblages and ceramic pieces, and she enjoys using bright colors and bold patterns that give her joy.
