• About

    Welcome to Kaleidoscope Mosaics which was started by Edda Dirks after
    having been inspired by the annual Ealing Art Trail events (“BEAT”) in West London.
    She has so far focused on abstract, often geometric, patterns,
    applying these to wall art, side tables, trays and trivets.
    She enjoys creating beautiful effects with a wide range of glass and ceramic tiles,
    using tesserae from matt to marbled to opalescent.
    Edda is happy to take commissions at affordable rates, creating your personal, unique piece
    which can be designed to match your existing colour schemes and décor.
    You can contact Edda at kmosaics@yahoo.com.

     

    Having mostly shown in West London so far (as well as Chester Cathedral), Edda has made the move rural Oxfordshire.

    She is looking forward to showing for the first time at the Watlington artsHUB's spring show

    on 6 to 8 March 2024 at the Watlington Methodist Church - further details to follow.
