Happy June! I hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather!

***

 

The piece to the right has a family story! This is my wonderful niece Steph, who bought my parents’ house when they moved into an independent living facility three years ago.

 

The house is in Medford, MA, and it’s where I grew up until I went to college. My parents ended up living there for 66 years!

 

She wanted to update the house number, as the metal numbers have been on the house for 100 years. She took them off, painted them teal, and attached them to the mosaic piece she made.

 

It's so nice seeing Steph upgrade the house with beautiful artwork.

 

As for my parents, they are still with us at the age of 95 and doing well!

I just heard that my new piece "Textures of Tranquility." was accepted into the New England Mosaic Society member gallery show.


It's made with slate, smalti, crockery, beads and rusty nails and hardware.


You are welcome to come to the opening reception:


Sunday, June 28th, 12:00pm-3:00pm Creative Arts Workshop

80 Audubon St

New Haven, CT


It's a juried members show, so all NEMS members who applied had one piece accepted.


If you are in the area, the show will run June 22 through July 22.


For those of you who want to know more about the NEMS, it's only $50 per year and offers webinars, the opportunity to apply to and attend gallery shows, and participation in community projects and events.


I was one of the nine founding members 10 years ago!

Windows Classes!

 Katie made this piece in the last windows class! The wave is a very popular motif, so well done!


The next windows class is Wed, July 15th and there are still openings.


Previous art experience is not necessary!

 

When you come to class, it's a good idea to bring a few online pictures to give me an idea of what you like. It helps me guide you through the process and choose supplies. 


I supply all the materials

including the window; however, if you have sentimental items like shells, rocks, sea glass, or dishware, bring it with you and I'll let you know what will work in your piece.

 

People are always amazed at

what they can create in only 4 hours!


***** 

By the way - feel free to reach out if you are replacing old wooden windows in your home. I'll come by

and get the smaller ones (36x30 or smaller) to be upcycled in class!

Great wave Nicole!

Maura brought dishware that she found at Savers and used them as the focal points of this piece. It really shines in the light!

Jean made this great piece in the windows class. She was inspired by a picture she found online.

Suncatcher Class!

You make three suncatchers (below), in this three-hour class.

 

If you have old jewelry, even

broken jewelry or small items you are keeping for some unknown reason, this is a great way to use them.

 

If you don't have any pieces

at home, come and use what I have at the studio!

 

The suncatcher class only runs

through September as the windows need to stay open for good ventilation.

 

Join us!

Weekly Classes

Tuesdays (full) and Thursdays!

10-12:30

NEW - There will be no Friday morning class for the summer! I've decided to take a break and enjoy the lake!


Since Tuesdays are full, you are welcome to join class on Tuesday afternoon 1-3:30, on Thursdays or on the monthly Mosaic Saturday!

Jill did a great job on her house number!

Helen made this for her garden!

These mushroom bases are made from the extra thinset (cement) and grout that students have at the end of each session. 

Such a fun piece by Amy!

Create Mosaic Succulents

Oct 24 and 25


In this day and a half class we learn to make nine succulents: three out of pottery/china, one out of rocks, and five out of putty.


You will never look at broken crockery the same way again!

Marcia had some extra epoxy putty from another project, and we couldn't let it go to waste, so she made this great rock for her garden!

Margaret does a great job creating planters and boxes.

Wonderful parrot, Rachel!

Joan's first project!

Micky used tempered glass on the fractured part of this heart, love it!

Soniya worked so hard on this piece and it shows!

Linda has a beautiful collection of birdhouses and they are all stunning and varied.

Geneva made some great pieces!

Gift Certificates!


The best gifts are experiential! Consider giving a gift of a class for birthdays, family reunions, and other occasions.

 

Recipients can also use the gift certificates for artwork or jewelry.

Private Parties

Birthday Parties

If you are in an organized group (book, card, neighborhood), have a family gathering coming up, or have a birthday (adults and children ages 8 and up) let’s plan an event!


*** 

Adults can choose one of these three options:

1) coaster/light switch covers

2) mosaic jewelry

3) suncatchers (May-Oct)

 

In children’s classes, students ages eight and up, can cut tile and cover a wooden shape of their choice.
