Mosaics 1A-Beginners PLUS (JUN 14 and 21, 2024)
Friday mornings, JUN 14 and 21 (9am-noon)
This class is a pumped up version of "Intro to Mosaic Art." It is for true beginners OR those who consider themselves 'newbies' but want more practice (or who just want to hang out with the cool people).
In this class, you create a small personalized wall-hanging mosaic using the direct method of mosaics, using a pattern to apply the art glass with Weldbond adhesive. True beginners will use a pattern provided by me; more advanced beginners can use modified patterns (also provided by me) or sketch their own.
You learn to:
- Use correct mosaic terminology and tools
- Apply 2D tesserae using a pattern and Weldbond adhesive
- Use glass cutting and shaping tools
- Grout and finish your mosaic
This class is primarily for beginners or for any newbie to mosaics that wants more practice with stained glass mosaics. Registration fee includes instruction, use of tools, a substrate, art glass, and adhesives. The instructor will send a detailed email the week before class. This class is about learning techniques, NOT creating a masterpiece! That comes later...
STUDENTS BRING: You will receive a list of items provided and potential items you can bring from home. However, remember this class is about using art glass, NOT any other materials.
Two sessions; total class time 5+ hours.
