Now you can have your very own on your mosaic ceramic tile beach kitchen backsplash, bathroom mosaic tile backsplash, or beach border tiles in your home.

The client ordered two custom ceramic tile back splashes. One was a tropical ceramic tile backsplash with a gorgeous brunette mermaid mosaic tile. The other order was this lovely beach mosaic tile backsplash for behind a vanity in their bathroom.

What was master tile artist, Diane H. Holycross' inspiration? The client sent a mesh mounted coral tile swatch.

"I carefully examined the color spectrum of the coral and determined it was a white, off-white, tan, and cream mix of colors." The coral had small divots, which could be represented with a cobblestone glaze technique."

"I felt the main elements should be the darker tones, so I used a cream-based clay." The background tiles a off-white-based clay."

The crab ceramic tile and shell tile shown above are a good example of how a simple monochrome coloring can make a big statement.

This is the mother ceramic tile mosaic turtle. There are three baby turtle tiles in tow, all of which can be viewed in a picture shown above.

The picture below is a studio layout of a monochrome beach tiled fireplace. It has five pelican tiles skimming the water at the top and an array of different beach tiles on each side.

Here are a few close up pictures...

This is the left side of the ceramic tile mosaic, beach themed fireplace.

The picture below is the right side of the ceramic tile beach themed fireplace design. It includes a couple of hermit crab ceramic tiles, cattail ceramic tiles, a lobster ceramic tile, starfish tile, and a couple of shell tiles in this mosaic tile design.

The top of this fireplace ceramic tile design contains five pelican ceramic tiles that are skimming the water.

These pictures are also studio photographs...ungrouted ceramic tiles. They show sea turtle ceramic tiles and rock/beach tiles in a 4" kitchen backsplash border.

I'm hoping for finished pictures soon from this repeat client, Dave Andrade of cadesignbuild@yahoo.com. The yellow, round glass gems were used to create bubbles in the ceramic tile, honu / sea turtle mosaic, and match the clients paint color.
