Classical Mosaics Workshop with Helen Miles at Mulranny Arts

A wonderful opportunity to learn from Master Mosaic Artist Helen Miles and a chance to take a deep dive into the ancient rules of mosaic making and find out how they apply to both classical style mosaics and contemporary work. Andamento is the visual flow or direction within a mosaic, produced by the placement of rows of tesserae. It’s an often-forgotten part of the art of mosaic but andamento, along with the use of the Roman rules, is a crucial tool to help you learn how to make harmonious mosaics.

By the end of the course, you will leave with a full understanding of how to harness the ancient rules to make striking mosaic designs. You will also know how to use two key methods for your future mosaic work, with an emphasis on creating mosaics which are suitable for all weather conditions.

This course is suitable for all levels, but participants are advised to learn basic cutting techniques before attending.
