WHAT:  Katherine will help us create a brightly colored glass mosaic (see attached photos).  Each person will choose one of five pattens: cat, skull (it is almost the Day of the Dead), heart, butterfly, or seahorse .  You will learn various cutting techniques, about what materials to use where (both for indoor and outside mosaics), and everything you ever want to know about adhesives, surfaces, grouts, colorants, sealants, tools, glasses, tiles.
