Artaic has released its newest tile mosaic design, Riptide. Riptide is an illustrative representation and interpretation of the way that water and sand can create unique shapes and patterns. To create the design, mosaic designer Jude Dahill used traditional pen and ink drawing as the base of the design and blended mixed media to achieve a balance between the bold linework and blending of the color gradients. The design is reminiscent of water flows and currents, large bodies of water, and sand dunes whose movements bring comfort. The collection’s original colorways are Ice in ½” Vitreous Glass, Turquoise in ½” Vitreous Glass, Graphite in ⅜” Natural Stone, and Desert in ⅜” Natural Stone but can be fully customized to feature any color story or tile type.
The new design is available as part of the Custom On Demand program which offers concept to completion in 4-8 weeks. New colors Ice and Turquoise are also available as part of the program, in addition to other Custom On Demand colorways.
