Greta Hurst, owner of Tabula Rasa Mosaics, portrays a vision of the natural beauty and chararcter of rural life in and around Baroda, Michigan. Greta' s subjects include pastoral landscapes, vineyards, and the earth itself. She strives to convey her passion for the basic elements of “terroir”, a sense of place, the soil and weather to depict the agricultural processes and abundance they produce.
In her studio, a converted chicken coop, nestled in the rolling vineyards of Southwest Michigan’s wine country; Greta uses a palette of stained, vitreous, fused and Smalti glass, ceramic tile, porcelain, pebbles, and found objects to create both abstract and representational mosaics.
