This is an adventure in the brilliant and playful medium of colored glass. After 2 days students will be experts in many different mosaic techniques . Our project will be a winged heart made of mdf board which we cover in nipped glass and tile. You will learn cutting techniques, everything you would ever want to know about adhesives and how to grout and finish you piece to perfection. This is truly a delightful and addictive experience.
