About the Author
Sarah Kelly trained as an illustrator but grew to love mosaic. Working mostly in vitreous glass, mirror, and ceramic, but also incorporating found objects, Sarah's work is a mixture of pictorial panels and three-dimensional pieces for exhibition and private collection. She has collaborated with the American designer Kaffe Fassett on a number of mosaic projects, one of which won a gold medal at the Chelsea Flower Show in London, and has worked on many large-scale commissions of her own.
