Saturday

Amen

Katherine England

No need for repentance in this class. We will be using precise and geometric cuts and patterns to map out and make our own pocket sized prayer rug. Our color palette will be rich purples, golds, and reds. The end result is a balanced array of lines and patterns. In addition to mosaic techniques we also will be learning to bead between our glass tiles giving a more tactile feel to our tapestry. Though I will bring all materials you need I suggest bringing some special token or piece from home as a center to this alter. Using the direct application method (no need to grout) your piece will be finished by days end. Final project is 4”x6”.

Kit Fee: $17

Katherine England is a muralist as well as an art teacher at the Muckenthaler Museum and several local schools and adult programs in Orange County. Though born in Hawaii she was lucky to be raised a child of the '60's near San Francisco. The colors and movement in art during this decade profoundly influenced her as a youth and show up as such in her art. Her favorite medium right now is tesserae and she loves breaking, nipping, melting it and coaxing into playful patterns and whimsical figures. Her largest mosaic piece is 40' by 8' but she also enjoys smaller and realistic portraits. She lives with her 4 amazing and beautiful kids in Fullerton, Ca.
