THE BRITISH PULLMAN AND NORTHERN BELLE
BRITISH PULLMAN VENICE-SIMPLON ORIENT -EXPRESS TRAINS
The commission to restore and create Mosaic s for the Orient -Express came about when I mosaiced the roundabout in Peacehaven in 2007.
If you look at the ABOUT US page you can see examples of the Mosaic Roundabout i did for the town with a friend as a gift.
From the publicity that came after making the roundabout, I was approached by The Orient Express to visit the Train in London and assess the Mosaic Floors on each of the Lavatory s.
This is how i started the Restoration work on each Mosaic.
It is an ongoing job, as little pieces of Mosaic come away every now and again.
When Mark and I got married in 2007, we took our Honeymoon on The Orient Express to Venice , a 4 Day trip, staying at the Hotel Cipriani....Amazing !!!
My next commission is to design and create 8 Mosaics for The Northern Belle train Based in CREWE .
I have already made one called CHATSWORTH. as you can see in the pictures below.
HARLECH is the next one I am currently working on . And I hope to finish it by spring this year .
Every Mosaic will be themed on a statly home or Castle based in the North of England and named after each Carriage.
There is a link to The ORIENT - EXPRESS website if you are interested in finding out more about their day trips, I recommend them , Especially the Christmas Trips, The Lavatorys are the best feature of course ...well worth a visit to each one !
