ay are using that quality of light to create artwork for homes, businesses, churches, and public buildings. Glass mosaic tiles can be used to create a beautiful backsplash in the kitchen, an exquisite sign for a business,
an undersea kingdom in a swimming pool, or a shimmering tropical jungle in the bathroom. The sparkling play oflight onthe tiles makes an ideal surface for altars in churches or for seating areasin businesses. The murals can be pictorial, or they can be used in neutral tones, to make the play of light the work of art. The ranges of shades and colors can give a feeling ofwarmth or coolness. The only limitation is your imagination.
Glass mosaic tiles are beautiful onsurfaces because they areluminescent--theyreflect light. The effect of candlelight, for example, is extraordinary on glass mosaics.
