About Alex Aylward

I started out by attending Stained Glass classes at night school and achieved a GNVQ Level 3 and then I tried mosaic.  My first ever mosaic of the goth rocker Marilyn Manson was a runner up in a Topps Tiles competition in 2009.

 I am inspired by the Art Nouveau movement and the use of elegant feminine nature-inspired flowing lines.  I am a bird watcher and love making bird and nature mosaics. I use stained glass fragments and shapes, beads and glass mosaic tiles.

I have been a member of BAMM since 2009 and attend quarterly meetings held by BAMM North. I work full time in accountancy and enjoy mosaic making in my spare time.
