Bailey Rae Tessier
My mosaic journey began in 2007 as a high school senior and started with ceramics and broken dishware. Soon after, I serendipitously connected with renowned mosaic artist, Sharra Frank, and began working as an apprentice artist under her tutelage in a summer program through COMPAS/Artswork.
I graduated with a BA in art from Luther College in 2012, located in Decorah, Iowa. If you’re in the area, check out a few of my pieces created for my favorite establishments – Dragonfly Books, Rubaiyat, and La Rana.
I’ve created works for Bank of America, Art Partners Group, Minnesota Orchestra, and assisted on pieces by Josie Lewis for the MSP airport, to name a few.
I proudly live and work in St. Paul, Minnesota.
