Book Description
Learn proven techniques and
successful methods of creating mosaic art from 19 different artists.
Patient professionals give informative, specific, and even moving
accounts of their personal mosaic strategies. See a wide range of
projects from a child's vanity with flashy platform shoes for feet, to a
dazzling representation of the ancient Golden Ratio; nothing is beyond
the capabilities of these masters...or your own. Discover tricks for
getting the best uses out of your substrates, tesserae, and objects in
your home that you can transform into mosaic art. Sharpen your grouting,
painting, carving, and sculpting skills, and try these mosaics
yourself, or take it in a new direction altogether. This book is an
informative, educational tool that can complement a class or be the
course guide. These experienced instructors will gladly help you
surmount obstacles that all mosaic artists face."
[In case you are confused, I made a mosaic with fused glass tiles. I'm thinking outside of the box!]
