Learn how to make a beautiful micromosaic pendant during this three-hour hands-on Zoom class with Janice Peacock. Included in the class fee is a kit that gives you everything you need to create your miniature work of wearable art.
Discover the fusion of flameworking and micromosaics. Learn to create delicate glass filati (stringers) at the torch and transform them into stunning miniature mosaics. Starting with basic torch techniques, students will learn to pull glass canes into long strands – simple designs for beginners, with opportunities for more advanced students to create complex patterns. You’ll learn to take these glass elements and cut them into tiny tiles, then arrange them in bezels to form miniature mosaics.
Learn the basics of glass micro mosaics, including how to slice glass canes, and secure them into a bezel setting for stylish one-of-a-kind mosaic jewelry. Using filati, pre-made glass components imported from Italy, students will each create their own miniature masterpiece. Janice will introduce the various tools and supplies used in micro mosaics, and address the special design challenges faced when working on this scale.
