Cutting and Laying Workshop at Ashland Art Center

April was an absolute dream of a month weather wise here in Talent, Oregon; a gorgeous Spring display of color and bloom took my breath away almost every day.

I was lucky enough to get to do some teaching in the midst of all this glorious weather and was joined at the Ashland Art Center once again by six lovely women,

studying the techniques of cutting and laying tile for mosaics.

We had scheduled a 4 hour workshop, and once again, I tried to cram tons of information into a one day class. We discussed different tools for cutting ceramic, stained glass, glass tiles, and other types of materials, as well as ways to lay tiles and shape them to create flow, movement, static areas, and areas of energy.

By the end of the day,  I think they were all getting the hang of it!

Several folks took home tools and materials to finish their pieces as time allowed.

I hope they all enjoyed themselves, I know I did. I’m planning to do a two day weekend workshop in July or August at the Art Center and would love to see you there. Contact me here, or on Facebook for updates and more info!
