Mixed-Media Mosaics on Slate with Rhona Duffy

Description

In this one-day workshop, you’ll create a playful mixed-media artwork for your home or garden. In the spirit of sustainability we’ll incorporate reclaimed materials such as bone china and slate, as well as high-quality sheet glass for a colourful and high-quality finish. We encourage you to bring along any bone china that you’d like to incorporate into your design – Rhona will be able to advise you about its suitability for outdoors. Choose your own motif to work from, it can be anything that inspires you…a house number, a favourite flower, an initial or something else – you choose! The workshop is suitable for both beginners and intermediate levels. So whether you’re brand new to mosaics, or if you’ve been to a previous workshop and would like to further develop your skills, you’re very welcome! You’ll learn about the materials, adhesives and grout that are suitable for exterior mosaics plus how to use tools to cut mosaics and glass, and put all your learnings into action. It’s a relaxed atmosphere where, not only will you develop or hone your mosaic skills, but you’ll also have an enjoyable day out! This is also a great workshop for team building and private parties.
