Glass on Glass Mosaics by Mosaic Whimsies
We’re hosting Mosaic Whimsies by Lisa Tolbert for some exciting new workshops this spring!
All registration is done through Lisa via her website: www.mosaicwhimsies.com
or you can contact her via email: leesa_tolbert@mosaicwhimsies.com
Available only in our Frankfort, IL location.
Lisa is also offering a four hour Glass-on-Glass Mosaic Class for both new and returning students. This style of mosaic is absolutely stunning! We recommend doing an internet search for “glass on glass mosaics” to get some inspiration and get a good idea of what can be done with this style of art. Rest assured, this is an introductory level class so if you’ve never done mosaic, you’ll do just fine tackling this project. Special glass on glass techniques and methods will be introduced as you design and construct a mosaic on a framed 5 X 5 clear sheet of glass. Students will take advantage of the unique effects that transparency, light, and color create to convey the same beauty and qualities of stained glass. Information will be provided prior to class to assist each student with ideas for individual designs. Students should plan on coming to the first class with rough sketches and ideas. Students will learn how to score glass and use nippers to form shapes with great detail allowing for intricate designs as well as use of clear liquid adhesive and grouting.
Register early to hold your spot in this fun and creative class!
