Course Details:

Unleash your creativity through mosaic design using colourful glass tiles. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn essential techniques including tile cutting, laying, and grouting, all while crafting your own unique artwork. Choose a design from a few patterns provided or create your own basic design and complete a 20x20cm mosaic—a manageable size chosen to ensure you finish your piece within the session. Along the way, you’ll explore key principles of mosaic design, with a particular focus on the direct method, helping you build both skill and confidence in this timeless art form.
