November 7, 2025 to January 25, 2026 - M4 Collective Plus One
Jacki Gran, Shug Jones, Julie Dilling, Jenny Perry, Dawnmarie Zimmerman (Mosaic Artists)
M4 Collective is a group of four American mosaic artists: Jacki Gran (Florida), Jenny Perry (Oklahoma), Julie Dilling (Texas) and Shug Jones (Texas). Each artist brings a unique style and viewpoint into their wall hanging and sculptural fine art mosaics. Dawnmarie Zimmerman (Pennsylvania) will be joining them for this exhibit.
Jacki Gran works in her home studio, splitting her time in Homestead, Florida and Lincoln, Maine. She works primarily in smalti, a traditional mosaic material. Smalti is a richly colored glass originating from the glass furnaces of Italy and Mexico. Most of her mosaics have accents using 24K Gold smalti creating incredible color, shine and reflectivity. Jacki is best known for her series of beautiful long necked, large-eyed mosaic girls.
Julie Dilling was born in the Fort Worth area and after living in various locations with her parents (her father was in the Air Force), she continued traveling with her Army husband before returning to her roots. Julie is known for her striking sculptural mosaics. Whether wall mounted or resting on a pedestal, her mosaics are filled with smalti, stone, beads, glass, and found objects on hand-built substrates. Her work is inspired by her life experiences and the natural world around her.
Anam Cara by Dawnmarie Zimmerman
For over 20 years, Dawnmarie Zimmerman’s use of stained glass and reclaimed materials has established her as a unique and pioneering spirit among contemporary mosaic artists. Her work has exhibited throughout the US and presented at premiere art festivals and galleries throughout Western PA. She has been a rostered artist with the Pennsylvania Council of the Arts and Southern Allegheny Museum of Art’s Artist in Residence Program, conducting residencies in K‐12 schools throughout Western Pennsylvania. She has taught all ages in basic mosaic technique and has written articles and instructional material on working with stained glass and non‐toxic adhesives.
Since 2005, she has served the Society of American Mosaic Artists as Executive Director where she is responsible for strategic guidance to the Board, management of staff and independent contractors and the execution of administration of programs including the American Mosaic Summit, Mosaic Arts International Exhibition, SAMA’s Website, publications, podcast and scholarship program.
Additionally, Ms. Zimmerman served on the Board of Directors for Touchstone Center for Crafts in Farmington, PA, in 2015 and is a member of Americans for the Arts and the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council.
I Wanna Be Sedated by Jenny Perry
Jenny Perry grew up in Southern California but moved to Oklahoma in her twenties. She creates her mosaics from smalti, stone, unglazed porcelain, glass, and a variety of other materials including found objects that she finds on her forages along country roads that she refers to as Redneck Beachcombing. Jenny creates both abstract and realistic mosaics, many including words and themes close to her heart.
A Pint in the Pub by Shug Jones
Shug Jones, a seventh generation Texan, is from North Texas, where she returned after living several years in Southeast Asia and Europe with her Navy husband. These experiences plus her continued travel have greatly inspired and influenced her mosaics. While she occasionally works abstractly with smalti and stone, her love of stained glass draws her to create photo-realistic art that concentrates on her observance of people around her and their interactions with others.

Become Spellbound - Jewelry by Kari Dern
Kari is a gifted local(!) artist in Baltimore City. She considers herself a spiritual seeker and has been creating art since childhood. Kari is passionate about crystals, minerals and fossils, and all treasures of the natural world. Living in Manhattan when she started this line of jewelry, she took a leap of faith in 2017, leaving a successful career in the corporate world to begin creating full time.
I am delighted to offer her work out Andamento! All of Kari’s jewelry features authentic crystals and fossil talismans, with attention to the energetic properties of each piece. She uses a proprietary sculptural process (no metal) for the gold and silver look without the weight.

February 6 to April 26, 2026 - Christy Dunkle
Based in Clarke County, Virginia since 2001 and creating mosaics since 2021, Christy explores the dynamic interplay of small spaces and movement through line and color. The beauty of the northern Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, where her studio is located, is a constant source of inspiration for her unique mosaic artworks. Christy’s mosaic art pieces are deeply inspired by the beauty and raw elements of nature, using materials like found slate from Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and even gathered from as far as Scotland. Many works incorporate 24-karat gold leaf, recycled roof tiles, black Youghiogheny River shale, Mexican smalti, and Marcellus shale needles. These unique mosaic art pieces are for people who find beauty in the imperfections of nature, who appreciate the tactile quality of mixed media, and who seek artwork that brings a touch of the outdoors into their living spaces.

May 1 to August 2, 2026 - Tana Reagan
Tana grew up in Winter Park, FL and has spent most of her adult life in Fairfax County, Virginia. She began creating small mosaics in 2010. Her mosaic art quickly morphed into large 3-dimensional sculpted artwork that required both imagination and strength. Knowing she was onto something, Tana sought additional artistic elements to couple with mosaicking and found glass fusion to be a fun new challenge. Tana spent several years developing her skills to shape, cut, and merge glass. Glass chemistry became a necessary expertise. Three ever-growing kilns later, Tana has truly explored the art of glass-fused mosaics and has found her own signature style. Featuring diverse texture, an array of color combinations, and “movement,” Tana's newest projects take multiple trips to the kiln until the desired effect is achieved.
August 7 to November 1, 2026 - Melanie Berry
Berry earned a BFA in sculpture from Virginia Commonwealth University before moving to time-based media and completing an MFA in filmmaking at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her films connected snippets of daily life into rhythmic sequences of color and shape. Over time, that organizational approach continued to define her practice while the constraints of family life pushed her to use more practical materials. She began breaking down and reassembling the tactile objects of domestic life, embedding cups and plates into loose, representational compositions. Her current work incorporates the traditional rules of andamento to link the patterns and pictures of dishware into narrative mosaic constructions. Now she uses common, everyday materials to work in a medium with strong ties to decorative art and popular craft. Although repurposed, her materials are still recognizable as objects made for another use, suggesting that meaning and value can be found by looking at something in a different way.
November 6, 2026 to January 31, 2027 - Yolanda Bergman
Yolanda studied at Paier College of Art in New Haven, Connecticut, where she majored in Illustration. However, it was the intricate and expressive nature of mosaic art that ultimately captured her talent and passion. She has since traveled extensively across the United States and abroad, studying with master mosaic artists to refine her craft.
In 2025, Yolanda was accepted into Ojai Studio Artists (OSA), an esteemed collective of professional artists in the Ojai Valley dedicated to fostering artistic excellence and community engagement. As a member, she joins a network of highly regarded creatives who open their studios to the public and contribute to Ojai’s thriving arts scene.
Today, Yolanda creates stained glass and smalti mosaics in a painterly style, bringing movement and emotion to her pieces through intricate color variations. Her work has been described as brimming with visual excitement.
