Barbara Henderson is a mosaicist with a passion for helping others express themselves through the art of mosaics. She took the scenic route to art, having been distracted by corporate life, ladder climbing, and the nonsense idea that she wasn't creative.
 

Now, nothing makes her happier than watching a student light up when they realize they've made something personal and meaningful. She teaches hands-on mosaic classes throughout the Puget Sound — at PenMet Parks in Gig Harbor, BARN on Bainbridge Island, North Bend Arts & Industry, Craftopia, Northwind Art School in Port Townsend, and select venues across Pierce, Kitsap, and southern King counties.
 

Her favorite saying is that "Perfection can be purchased at the dollar store. Art and beauty are found in the unique and flawed." She serves on a variety of boards and committees and lives in Gig Harbor with her husband and far too many dogs and chickens.
