DIANE SABUDA 

Living in the Pacific Northwest, many hobbies and creative outlets are needed in the winter months.  In 1997 I was looking for a new hobby or diversion and decided to take a stained glass class at Renton Vocational Technical School.  I fell in love with stained glass, the beauty of the glass and the many design possibilities were just what I needed to get through the long winter months.  

I made many pieces for friends and family and then started using scrap glass to decorate concrete stepping stones and bricks for outdoor garden beauty. 

 I then took a class in mosaic and fell in love with the creativeness of mosaic.  I love the free style of mosaic, not quite as tedious and detail oriented as stained glass, but still the medium is so beautiful.  

I enjoy searching for new tile styles and colors and have become a treasure hunter of interesting objects to complement the tiles in my pieces.  Anything is game in mosaic!  And anything can be tiled, if it doesn’t move I’ll mosaic it!
