About the Author:
Born and raised in Orlando, FL, Chrissie Grace attended two years of school at the New World School of the Arts in Miami. She graduated from the University of Central Florida with a Bachelors of Science in Art Education. After teaching various forms of art for thirteen years, she began her company, Wild Tiles Mosaics, Inc., in 2002. She taught art at a local elementary school for two years, until she decided to stay at home with her children and focus more on her artwork.

Chrissie became an artist at a very early age, obsessed with color and texture. Traveling throughout the country, she has studied drawing, painting, sculpture, ceramics, quilting, collage, photography, fiber art, glassblowing, bead work, and mosaics. She considers herself a mixed-media artist. One thing that makes her mosaics so unique is that she includes hand-made ceramic pieces in most of her work.
