Mosaics Weekends with Rosalind Wates - 15th & 16th October 2016

Come piece together your creativity on Rosalind Wates’ Mosaic Weekend. She’s an artist inspired by the natural world and she specialises in mosaics.  She also loves to pass on her passion on to others! 

These immersive experiences are suitable for all abilities. Students can be taught how to design and work on their own mosaics or improve on skills they already have. With a broad range of tiles to use, the possibilities for creating lovely mosaics are endless.  

We’ll cover classic mosaic styles, and students will gain a thorough grounding in skills and techniques, although the emphasis of the course is on individual creativity. It’s fun, creative, absorbing, and sociable!

This fun weekend course includes:

  • Informal, relaxed & attentive guidance for every student, provided by Roz Wates
  • Step-by-step demonstrations covering…
  • How to plan your design so it is ready for mosaicing
  • How to cut your tiles to the shapes you want
  • How to fix the tiles in place
  • How to grout and finish your piece

The price for this course is £100

Materials are not included but are reasonably priced - £10 - £30 depending on the size of your project.
