Martin will teach direct and indirect mosaic methods using a variety of materials including glass and ceramic tesserae. Grouting techniques will also be covered. During the course you will design and make a mosaic approximately 1 sq ft in area and be equipped to go home and tackle more and larger projects. Tuition and individual attention will be friendly and constructive, and a number of people return to Martin's courses due to the relaxed and inspiring atmosphere. Both beginners and experienced mosaicists are welcome in the exciting venue of Flint House.
