Not Your Grandmother's Mosaics! This class will help expand your mixed-media repetoire using layered images, stained glass, gemstones, beads, found objects etc. as well as ceramic tile and tile "gems", to construct a painterly and expressive art piece with personalized meaning. 

We will also explore the history of mosaic imagery, and Anna will be on hand to coach guests on developing personally meaningful designs, as well as ways to best translate them into mosaic format. 

Workshop participants will come away with a completed 12 x 12" panel, with the option to also purchase a set of tools to continue their work at home, or in SASS's monthly Mosaic Studio Group meetup. 

About the Artist: Anna Meyrick Kirkpatrick was born and raised in Oregon, and has been working with mixed media and teaching her personal style of mosaics for many years. She loves our natural landscape, symbols, mythology, magic and mystery, which shine through in her work.
