Intermediate level mosaic making workshop with Mossy Mosaic

Description

Develop your mosaic making skills in this one day workshop with Jacky Cox from Mossy Mosaic.

If you have previously attended the introduction to mosaic making or the mosaic with reclaimed china workshop with Jacky, or have some prior experience of mosaic making, this is the workshop for you! Develop your skills in this full day session where you will practice more precision cutting techniques and have the opportunity to work with a range of materials including reclaimed china, sea washed glass, sea washed china and vitreous glass tiles. 

You will design, make and grout your own bespoke hanging fish, suitable for inside or outside. A selection of china and other materials will be provided (along with your pre-cut & treated wooden fish) and you can also bring your own. You might also want to incorporate your own embellishments such as old buttons, beads or pieces of jewellery.

In her own work Jacky uses a mix of materials. She has been immersed in mosaic making for over 15 years and is looking forward to sharing this passion with you!

More information 

The Arienas Collective workshops, courses and events are run from a supportive and welcoming home-based environment within a Georgian mews home in Edinburgh’s City Centre New Town. We invite you to join us, leave any day-to-day worries behind, and immerse yourself in being creative.

Spaces on our workshops and courses are limited so that our creative team of artists and makers can offer you the hands-on help and support you need to make the most of your time with us. 

All the equipment and materials you will need are included in the price, unless stated otherwise, plus light refreshments (a selection of Shibui teas, coffee, hot chocolate, and sweet or savoury snacks). On full day workshops you are welcome to bring your own lunch to eat inside or out; or there are a wide range of independent sit-in or takeaway delis, cafés, and restaurants, plus supermarkets, within a 5-10 minute walk.

PLEASE NOTE: Our workshop space is on the first-floor of a Georgian mews building and unfortunately we do not have lift access. The workshop space is in our home which is not nut free. Please let us know of any skin or food allergies before booking.
