Designing from the Heart w/ Kaye Iverson
A 2 Day Mosaic Workshop:
Designing from the Heart
Saturday Oct 3 & Sunday Oct 4th, 2009
10- 6pm Cost $200 * Lunch Provided
This workshop is designed to assist students in creating their own mosaic designs. Experience what it is like to focus on the journey rather than the final piece. As an added benefit, you will discover the nurturing and relaxing value of mosaics in one’s life.
Principles of design and composition will be covered. Some of the topics we will take a closer look at are color, textures, scale, balance, contrast, and rhythm. There will be a wide variety of materials to choose from for your projects including: glass, ceramic, millefiori, beads, pebbles, and shells. An indoor project, 12” x 12” will be designed. There will be about 10 hours to work on projects. Grouting will not be completed due to time restraints, however, a grouting demo and instructions will be provided. In addition, a demonstration of tools will be given for those who need assistance. Tools will be provided in class to share.
Everything will be included in the workshop fee, however, student’s may want to bring:
- Tweezers
- Glass or ceramic cutting tools if you have them.
- Safety glasses are required! If you have some, bring them. Otherwise you may have to use spares that I have that may not be comfortable for you.
- Jewelry, beads, and small collectable items that you would like to add to your work.
*If you have dietary restrictions, you are welcome to bring your lunch. There is a refrigerator and microwave on the premises.
