This photograph of the tiled mural we made for a cultural center in Rochester, NY,
appeared in the most recent Rochester Democrat & Chronicle Sunday edition. We
reproduced a painted mural by Kofi Kayiga. LTS also made "membership" tiles, with
smaller images of this work and quotations, which we hope will bring in the funds they
need to keep an exciting non-profit adventure alive.

LTS produced a 6' x 2' ceramic tile mural of for the new location of an
exciting Cultural Center in Rochester, NY. We will post pictures after the
unveiling on December 7, 2006.
We have several new artists who are licensing their work to us for
reproduction on single art/accent tiles as well as on dramatic tile and stone
murals and installations. Amanda Hone is a prolific British artist whose
bold, colorful, and witty paintings in abstract and pop art styles make
fabulous tiles. Richard Murch is a photographer and digital artist whose
work heightens and transforms natural and architectural themes. His work
was born to be turned into large tile murals. Jo Dunnick, a dynamic
watercolorist from Oregon adds Western, Native American, floral, and wildlife
themes to our resources. A gallery of her images will be up soon.
August 22, 2006 Loudeac Tiles are cropping up in stores here and there and, soon, we expect, at locations in between. We thank Stitchin' Post in Sisters, Oregon, Gallery 41 in Owego, NY, Marty Collmer's Antiques in Cazenovia, NY, and Imagicka in Binghamton, NY, for carrying our tiles.
