Workshop ‘Impactful Colors’

The more variation, the better! Mosaic lives from lively color and material mixtures. In this course, you will learn how to make color transitions, create contrasts, and mix colors so that each pixel has its meaning. The vibration of color in the mosaic will fascinate you and you will see how volume, transparency, perspective and movement can be represented by the use of color.

Learn to use color wisely to create vibrating mosaics

In this workshop, you learn

  • playful approach to color mixing in the mosaic
  • the role of joints, size of mosaic stones, light and shadow
  • selection, mixing and laying of colors
  • Excursus: use of gold in mosaic making
  • Excursus: flesh colors for mosaic portraits
  • Use the Mosaic Hammer properly
  • Prepare material and produce shapes with little waste
  • copy a design in the format 20 x 20 cm

Different designs are available, also own designs are possible. You can choose from marble and smalti from my collection. Own material can be brought.
