Our Mexican Smalti workshop took place last weekend. Every student worked on the same flower design while learning the processes of proper cutting and fitting skills.
Everyone left with the knowledge of color gradation, shading and color values. It was a fantastic two full days of hands on learning!
Learning to work on a 3D object can be fun and a little challenging at the same time. The results will be so gratifying when you see the sparkle and reflection of glass from so many angles.
Our students use found objects, tile, mirror, and pottery to create a one of a kind object of beauty. You will work directly with Teacher and Owner Tami Macala as she takes you through the process of creation including design layout, setting tesserae, and a grouting lesson. You will leave with a beautiful, creative, and functional piece of art for your garden or home. Check our website schedule for upcoming classes!
Visiting artist Carol Shelkin taught at The Santa Barbara School of Mosaic Art last August, and we are so lucky to have her back!
She had such a great experience with our students last summer, that she decided to return. The Realistic Mosaic Art in Stained Glass Workshop on April 6th and 7th is filling up quickly! Carol is so skilled at teaching, that the skills you will learn in this workshop will equal what you would learn in a semester of art school. Carol uses powerpoint lectures, hands-on attention, and feedback for each student. Every student will leave with greater knowledge of many artistic elements which will be used in any art medium they choose.
