Streams, rivers, oceans and lakes are essential to all life.  When we encounter them, when we cross a river or catch a glimpse of a bay, we reconnect to water, to the element that makes up 98% of our being.  Using stone, glass and ceramic tile, Jo Bauen’s mosaics evoke natural waterways on everyday surfaces such as walls, floors, patios, kitchens and baths.  Her mosaics bring the calming, restorative quality of water to our daily lives.

Bauen’s projects range from abstract concepts of water to geographically accurate depictions of watersheds, oceans, and lakes.  Bauen develops designs to fit any space, inviting the client to imagine a river running across an entryway, an ocean shoreline abutting a patio, or a favorite stream represented on a fireplace…each made of stone, tile, glass or ceramic mosaic.  The mosaics are integrated into the structural demands of their settings.

The Bauen team is proficient in all phases of mosaic tile installation and preparation for kitchens, bathrooms, fireplaces, walls, gardens and patios.  All installations are waterproof, weatherproof and permanent.
