About

Learn the tricks to making beautiful glass mosaic art suitable to hang outdoors. This class is your ticket to brightening the entrance of your home, adding pizzazz to your patio, or creating a focal point in the yard.

You choose one of three design ideas:

Celebrate your house number
A purely decorative design
A hanging mosaic for the yard or garden

Learn mosaic techniques such as cutting, arranging, and grouting, and unleash your creativity to design a piece that reflects your unique style. This class offers a fun and inspiring opportunity to create a beautiful, lasting work of art for your outdoor living area.

Project

You will make a 9-inch by 20-inch glass mosaic plaque of your design and colors of your choosing.

Barbara Henderson

Barbara is a mosaicist with a passion for helping others express themselves through the art of mosaics. She discovered art a little later in life than lots of other people, having been distracted by corporate life, ladder climbing, and the nonsense idea that she wasn’t creative. Now her favorite thing is to watch a student realize their unique ability to produce something personal and meaningful, and to develop their own artistic vision. Her favorite saying is that “perfection can be purchased at the Dollar Store. Art and beauty are found in the unique and flawed.” She serves on a variety of boards and committees and lives in Gig Harbor with her husband and far too many dogs and chickens.
