Mixed Media Steam Punk Mosaic Mirror
Supervised children aged 8 to adults welcome. Please note, spaces are limited on this class, so book early.
Explore the use of mixed media and create a personalised mosaic mirror. Learn techniques for cutting, laying, and grouting tesserae (pieces such as tiles and pottery) and take it home to reflect on!
The options are many, as you can:
- Work with charms including bronze keys to add a steam punk feel. Steampunk is a science-fiction genre based in Victorian England and can have a sentimental, as well as a steam power feel with brass fittings and steel gizmos. You may also want to bring personal mementos like broken jewellery, watch parts, etc. and see how they may work with your mosaic. You can lay images under glass like the ones below, or bring a copy or photo.
- Focus on the textures and patterns of ceramic tiles and pique assiette. Pique assiette is a style of mosaic that uses pieces of broken ceramics such as pots into the design
- Incorporate other items like charms, shells, and glass nuggets
The price is £30 (£25.50 concessions and under 19) including materials and car parking. Dichroic glass is also available to buy on the day. Please contact me for bookings or pay with PayPal here
