NEW! Mosaic with Photo
This new three hour class allows students to incorporate their own photo or print imagery into unique mosaic creations. Students are encouraged to bring in a favorite photo or photos approx 4"x6" size that can be used in this project. Family members, children or even pets make great subject matter. We will have a selection of recycled clear glass tiles we call "ice cube" that allow photos to be mounted and included into a finished mosaic project. As this class is somewhat involved due to the various techniques demonstrated students will be leaving class with grout provided to complete this step of the piece at home. All materials (other than the photo) will be provided, $65- limit to 6 participants.

Explore the basic materials and techniques used to apply stained glass mosaic to glass substrates. No prior experience necessary. $75, Limit 6 participants.

Mixed Media Mosaic
Learn basic principles for combining mixed media elements such that your finished creations contain tension and interest without being chaotic. (I also call this course "Making Art That Doesn't Look Like Stew," and credit my friend Brooks Tower for the stew analogy.) Prior mosaic experience recommended.$65
