Lisa Betz Art

I use to search and search for inspiration, now I find that I'm inspired by my very own artwork! My journey in the world of art began with my love for mosaic. I thought there would never be room in my heart for anything other than mosaic, that changed when I discovered my love for making jewelry. Until I started making my own jewelry, I rarely wore any jewelry at all, I love to wear the jewelry I create. My jewelry making began with tiny (I'm talking performing surgery here!) mosaic pendants and has expanded into all sorts of multi-media jewelry techniques, such as metal work, leather, commercial grade resin, ceramic bead making and so much more. I had no idea how much there was to making jewelry, it is intense! Other than being beautiful, it's important to me that my jewelry wears well, that it's comfortable and durable, built to last. Then there is the world of ceramics, I'm falling in love with that too! It all began when I realized how difficult it was to find the right colors and textures for my mosaic creation. I now make many of the pieces for my mosaic art, including, words, flowers, leaves, hearts, stars, animals, dolls, faces, the list keeps growing. Making my artwork makes me happy and I've come to find out that it makes others happy too, even more important!
