Vicki Waldon

After years of being a full-time mother of two, Vicki now uses her passion and creativity to create distinctive Mosaic art for her business, BZach's Mosaics. Unlike many mosaic artist with works forming a pattern or still-life form, her art work tells a story, using antique china, vintage jewelry, decorative tile and even handmade pottery to create one-of-a-kind pieces that share a personal connection with its collector. Vicki's work is represented in home décor boutiques and art galleries across the country.
