Glass Mosaic (Advanced)
A mosaic is “a picture or other design constructed from smaller pieces”. The choice of materials, in addition to the skill in creating and placing the pieces contribute to the artistic and practical value of the mosaic.
For this workshop, the students will learn to cut sheets of glass into shapes. Next, I will explain the principles of mosaic, colour and how to design a piece. The mosaic is assembled. The “grouting” process is demonstrated and explained. The grouting process can take place only 24 hours after assembling the mosaic, because the adhesive has to dry completely. The students grout their work and the artwork is polished and finished. With this workshop the students acquire the skills to make many more art glass mosaics.
