Abstract: The Honors problem with which I was involved this year was a study of mosaics, beginning with mental preparation which took place during the research period and reaching a culmination point with the presentation of the project itself, composed of five mosaics. The selection of the problem occurred after an experience which I had the previous year in the construction of a ceramic tile mosaic, originated in partial fulfillment of the requirements of an art course at the Woman's College. The experience was rewarding in that there was a personal realization that this form of expression allowed the artist to combine with his knowledge and feeling for color and line usage in painting his knowledge and feeling for a more structural form of art expression.
