Mosaic by Bonnie Fitzgerald
This class brings together the art of mosaics with an iconic symbol of the Mexican Day of the Dead celebration. Students are guided through the complete process of creating a 2-dimensional sugar skull mosaic complete with its own hanging device. Custom-made substrates are constructed from common building materials, and the mosaic surface is created using stained glass, glass tiles, and found objects.
Instruction includes cutting techniques, sourcing and preparation of materials and fabrication methods. No mosaic or stained glass experience is required.
A supply fee of $65 payable to the instructor at the first session covers all materials, including adhesives, grout, a wide variety of mosaic material, and tool loan during class time.
