A sneak peek of what is in front of me this aftern A sneak peek of what is in front of me this afternoon...

Throwback… to two years ago now! I so loved crea Throwback… to two years ago now! I so loved creating this big mosaic portrait… #mosaic #mosaicart #mosaicartworks #mosaicartist #glassart #glass #greta #sarahpryke #throwback #horseart #horseartist #horse #horseportrait #artcommission #art #commission
The big mosaic I was working on a while ago is now The big mosaic I was working on a while ago is now finished and happily installed in its new home. These two Striated Herons were such fun to create… especially as this is a pretty big mosaic at 1200 x 1600 mm (3’9” x 5’4”), so the heron in the foreground is not small! I really enjoyed doing something a bit stylistically different for a client who wanted a pretty simple scene with only one or two herons. This mosaic is all made from glass. To celebrate the installation in beautiful Knysna (South Africa), apparently guests from the private estate were invited to a special ‘heron hatching’ luncheon! #striatedheron #heron #mosaic #mosaicart #mosaicartist #mosaicartwork #glass #glassart #sarahpryke #artcommission #commission #birdart #birdartist #heronart #wildlifeart #wildlifeartist #southafricanart #southafricanartist #knysna
Another sneak peek of this big one… hopefully I’ll be able to reveal it soon… there are a couple of big birds in here… 1200x1600 mm (48” x 64”), mosaic in glass #mosaic #mosaicart #mosaicartwork #mosaicartist #sarahpryke #glass #glassart #workinprogress #wip #waytogo
The Namibian desert scene is finished… well, act The Namibian desert scene is finished… well, actually, maybe not as I think we have now decided that it actually needs another panel! I really loved creating this one… Not only was it commissioned by a very dear friend, who is also the most brilliant award-winning oil painter (so no pressure!), but I also had the freedom to design and create a unique scene based on her brief, which I think is my favourite type of commission. In the scene there is a gemsbok, a herd of springbok, a few meerkats, ostriches (on the dunes), greater and lesser flamingos, a kori bustard and a pair of blacksmith plovers. I think the biggest challenge for me was bringing in all the different flora and fauna, as well as the water and dunes, while still creating that feeling of open space that to me is the heart of the Namib desert. Diptych; each panel is 800x800 mm (2’7”x2’”7), all made from glass. This artwork will be heading off to its new home in Swartkopmund in Namibia. #mosaic#mosaicart #mosaicartist #mosaicartwork #glass #glassart #sarahpryke #namibia #namib #swartkopmund #desert #desertart #flamingo #springbok #gemsbok #quivertree #meerkats #ostriches #wildlifeart #wildlifeartist #southafricanart #southafricanartist #artcommission
