Combining traditional mosaic technique with contemporary mosaic practices, experience the joy of mosaics, a wonderful mosaic addiction.
OzMosaics Studio offers beginner to advanced mosaic workshops. 
Mosaic artists will benefit from Sandy's workshops as Sandy has many tips/tricks built into her workshops.  At the January 2013 5 day mosaic workshop, students raved about Sandy's beginner workshop (these students have been making mosaics for over a decade and were on information overload at the Beginner's workshop at OzMosaics!).

Sandy Loves Laticrete
products and has been using them for a decade!  It's a great product and it's what the pro's use!  Our art is as important as the Olympic Cube, tall buildings and huge Shopping Mall floors - every piece of tile is precious and we use products that make our mosaics stand up and last!

Some of the best innovations we have made in mosaics over the last ten years, have been based on the feedback from students, wanting more out of mosaics. 

We have worked day in day out with the products and pushed the limits to create mosaics of high stanards but we always thinking outside the square. Combine traditional mosaic techniques with contemporary style - you will find there is no limit to your mosaics. 
A powerful combination of opus, andamento, quality products and inspiration will have your creative heART thumping!

mosaic eye_muralI know what it's like to be bitten by the mosaic bug!  Suddenly you see everything covered in mosaics in your mind's eye and can't wait to get smashing and nipping those tiles!   Perhaps you have tried your own hand at making mosaics and would like to know more about mosaic technique and cutting mosaic tiles? 
Need to know more about what to do and what not to do?   You have come to the right place to get a good start in mosaics and work your way up to making stunning masterpieces that will last the distance.

abrednaqYes, it looks easy at first, smash some tiles, glue them down and grout.  But, what about pre-sealing the base?  How do you select the correct glue to go in that birdbath!

What is the direct method, the mosaic on mesh method, indirect, 3-d, push-in and how you select a grout colour that will blend well with your mosaic materials?  Do you need inspiration to make more than a flat table top?  Do you long to decorate floating balls for your pool, garden pedestals, perhaps a car?

Well, you have come to the right place -  book into our beginner workshop, a busy day full of mosaic technique, fun and over the top inspiration!
Over 12 years, I have assisted hundreds of students and we have a very strong student base, continually making mosaics!
