Mosaics Basics: Dishes and Tile | 2 Weeks

Instructor Lauren Becker Downey

In this fun and practical 2-part workshop, learn the basics of direct method mosaic while creating a work of art with broken dishes and/or ceramic tiles adhered to an object. Learn about materials, adhesives, cutting skills, designing and grouting. Please bring a hammer, tiles or dishes to break, and the object of your choice to mosaic; a box, tray, table top, vase, wide picture frame, flower pot, etc. (made of terra cotta, glass, metal, ceramics, cement or wood). In the first meeting, students will break, design and apply their broken pieces. Grout at the second meeting. Materials list provided upon registration.

In the weeks between the first and second meeting, you will work on and complete your project at home.
