Meltdown	Spinoff	Vertigo

Sonia King, mosaic artist, creates contemporary art mosaics for gallery, architectural, community and home settings. Her award-winning mosaic art is exhibited both nationally and internationally and is represented in private, public and corporate collections.

"Sonia King has searched out gentle terrains within the natural world in order to provide us with intimate views of our environment. Her earth-toned mosaics are abstract landscapes that are both familiar and complex."   -JoAnn Locktov, Author, The Art of Mosaic Design

"The extraordinary thing about Sonia King's work is her ability to create homogeny without sacrificing the individuality of her materials. Each segment is uniquely alluring, but when assembled together becomes an engaging masterpiece."   -American Lifestyle Magazine
