A Mosaic Artist Creating Original Work Across the Region
Felicity Ball Mosaics designs and makes high quality mosaic art for clients throughout Gloucestershire. As an experienced mosaic artist, I create custom pieces for private homes, gardens, commercial spaces and public art. Every mosaic is cut by hand, carefully designed and built to last.
Easy, Personal Mosaic Commissions
I offer a straightforward approach to mosaic commissions. Share your ideas, inspiration, or requirements, and I’ll develop a design to suit your space. You’ll receive regular updates and photos throughout the process, making it a collaborative and enjoyable experience from start to finish.
Mosaic Design Tailored to Your Space
All mosaics are made in my Bristol studio using porcelain and ceramic. Whether you’re seeking bold interior design art or weather resistant exterior art, I’ll create a piece that complements its surroundings. My work blends abstract and figurative styles for a distinctive, timeless finish.
Common Mosaic Applications
Clients across Gloucestershire have commissioned mosaics for:
- Decorative kitchen or bathroom panels
- Garden walls and outdoor features
- Furniture tops and bistro tables
- Business or corporate displays
- House Signs and Numbers
- Unique gifts for special occasions
- Memorial mosaics
- Statement wall art
Why Choose Bespoke Mosaic Art
Each commission from Felicity Ball Mosaics is made to order. I cut every tile by hand and use trusted techniques to ensure durability and detail. Whether your style is contemporary or traditional, I’ll design something truly one of a kind.
Built for Interior and Exterior Settings
I create both indoor and outdoor mosaics using weatherproof materials where needed. My mosaics are sealed and finished to last, whether they’re used in bathrooms, kitchens, patios, or gardens.
Mosaics That Suit Gloucestershire Homes
Gloucestershire's buildings have a lot of character. In the Cotswolds, villages such as Bourton on the Water, Stow on the Wold and Chipping Campden are built from oolitic limestone that weathers to honey and gold. Cheltenham is known for its Regency terraces, Tewkesbury for its timber framed buildings, and the five valleys around Stroud for their old cloth mills and stone cottages.
Warm stone like this suits a particular palette. Deep blues, sage greens and soft terracotta sit beautifully against Cotswold stone, while a crisp design in strong colours can look wonderful against pale stucco. I'll suggest colours that work with your house as well as with your own taste.
House Names and Garden Signs
Many village houses go by a name rather than a number, which makes a mosaic name plaque a lovely way to welcome visitors. I also make signs for garden rooms, studios and sheds, each one designed around the lettering and colours you choose.
Gardens, Courtyards and Garden Rooms
Gloucestershire gardens range from cottage borders to walled courtyards, and a mosaic can bring colour to any of them. A panel on a garden wall, a sunburst above a bench or a mosaic bistro table on the terrace all work well outside, and outdoor pieces are sealed appropriately for external conditions.

How My Gloucestershire Commissions Work
Commissioning a mosaic is straightforward, and you'll know where things stand at every stage:
- Tell me about your idea and send a photo of the space, with rough measurements.
- I'll suggest a design and confirm the size, colours and price with you.
- A deposit of 10%, which is not refundable, books your place on my schedule.
- I cut every tile by hand in my Bristol studio and send you photos as the work progresses.
- When your mosaic is finished, I deliver it or you collect it from the studio.
Gloucestershire is well within my personal delivery area of about 100 miles from Bristol, charged at 45p per mile for the round trip. Smaller pieces under 30cm by 30cm can go free by Royal Mail Tracked.
Mosaic Ideas Inspired by Gloucestershire
The county is full of subjects for a mosaic. A few ideas to start the conversation:
- Cotswold sheep grazing on the wolds
- Racehorses, for anyone who loves Cheltenham's racing
- Wild daffodils, which flower around Dymock in spring
- Gloucester Cathedral or Tewkesbury Abbey
- The River Severn and the birds along it
- Dry stone walls, cottages and your own house name
Every design starts with what matters to you, and I'll suggest colours that sit happily with Cotswold stone, brick or pale Cheltenham stucco.

Yes. My studio is in Bristol, within easy reach of the whole county, and I make mosaics for homes, gardens and businesses across Gloucestershire, from Cheltenham and Gloucester to Stroud, Cirencester and the Cotswold villages.
House name plaques, numbers, garden panels, bistro tables and wall pieces all work well. I'll choose colours that sit with the warm tones of the stone, and outdoor pieces are made with materials suited to external conditions.
