Mosaics 2A-Using Broken Ceramics with Facetape (May 13 and 20, 2022)
Friday, May 13 (Part 1, 9 am-noon) and May 20 (Part 2, 9 am-noon).
Do you appreciate the vibrant colors of pottery, tile, or ceramics, even when they are broken?
In this class, you will create wall art or a trivet using the indirect method with face tape on an MDF substrate, applying broken ceramics (uneven tesserae) with regular thinset adhesive.
You learn how to:
- Create a portable mosaic with face tape
- Use curved tesserae and thin set adhesive
- Use tile nippers and scorers
