Workshop on creating a marble mosaic painting
At this workshop, we will:
◇ Familiarize ourselves with natural stone, learn the tools and techniques of marble cutting.
◇ Learn how to lay tesserae in neat rows and create a mosaic.
◇ Mount the mosaic on a base and work with epoxy grout.
◇ Discuss the history of mosaic, assembly techniques, and other interesting facts.
I will provide you with all the necessary materials and tools, as well as the bases for the mosaic. You can choose a design from the provided sketches or discuss your own mosaic idea with me in advance.

The workshop will last for 2 days, with 10-hour sessions, including breaks for lunch and coffee. The number of participants is limited to 4-8 adults.
I invite you to join my workshop, as working on a mosaic is an engaging process where, before your eyes, a contemporary mosaic is born from a material with a history spanning millennia. The word "mosaic" comes from ancient Greek, meaning "a work dedicated to the Muses."
