If you have been thinking about trying the art of mosaic, and you love to garden, this class is the best of both worlds. During your 2 days with mosaicist Patricia Franklin, you will learn how to nip (cut) a beautiful assortment of tesserae (stained glass and mixed media) into various shapes and sizes of flower petals, stems and leaves. You will finish day one by gluing these designs onto a clay pot and making a miniature mosaic garden. On day two, you will tape, grout and clean your work of art — ready to try your next project! All supplies (including your own double wheeled nippers — a must!) will be supplied by Patricia.
