Local mosaic artist, Nancy Mayhew, recently studied with Solange Piffer, an international Brazilian Mosiacist in order to bring to Womanspace "FLORES EM PICASSIETTE". This is the art of making flowers out of broken ceramics: plates, cups, pottery, china, and other found objects to create a one of a kind mosaic flower portrait!

You will also learn to make the stems, leaves and centerpieces for the flowers out of Apoxie® sculpt. In the second class, you will make the background out of stained glass. In the third class, you will grout and put finishing touches on the frame. Come and create a bright and unique summer garden for your wall! Fee includes all materials.
