Personal Altars and Shrines- Shrine on!
This class is designed to teach basic mosaic techniques such as design, nipping, placement, adhesives, grouts as well as beading and building with a collection of materials. We will also learn mosaicking with beads and gems.
Starting with a central object such, as a tin heart or sacred object [of your choosing] as the center piece, we then move on to mosaicking the edges, background and stand. There will also be tons of fun ephemera to create flourishes and decoration that sets this art piece apart from most. Finished piece will be 12" x 12" x 4".
