Description: In this workshop we will be making small framed mosaic “doodle” using a wide variety of materials, including Italian and Mexican smalti, stone, ceramic pieces, millefiore, and hand made Wasser glass “smalti”. The mosaic area in the frame is 4 1/4 inch square.

We will explore creating non-restrictive compositions, using the materials to inspire and influence direction. Instruction will include cutting techniques, proper mixing and use of adhesives, and how to use andamento and color to create the mosaic.

All materials and frames/substrates are included, but students are welcome to bring any additional elements to personalize their mosaic. We will be using thin set as an adhesive, and colorants will be available for tinting.

I love working in mosaic, especially dealing with the challenges and limitations of the materials. The glass must be carefully chosen from a limited palette, since colors cannot be mixed, and each piece must serve as an individual brush stroke working in harmony with the surrounding pieces.
