Join Amy for a hands-on introduction to the fundamentals of mosaic making in Margate. In this friendly, creative workshop, you’ll design and make your own 15 cm mosaic using the direct method on wood, working with unglazed ceramic and vitreous glass in a wide range of colours.
This workshop is designed to be welcoming and supportive, with a small group size so you’ll get plenty of guidance along the way. You’re welcome to bring your own design, choose from examples provided, or ask Amy ahead of time to help source something specific for you.
What to expect:
  • Develop a design suitable for mosaic.
  • Learn the principles of andamento (the flow and movement of tiles).
  • Choose colours and tile types that work well together.
  • Use traditional mosaic tools to cut and shape tiles.
  • Grout and finish your completed piece!
By the end of the day, you’ll leave with a finished mosaic to take home, a solid understanding of core mosaic techniques, and the confidence to keep exploring this satisfying craft. It’s a relaxed, focused day of making where you can enjoy learning something new and creating something truly your own.
What you'll get
  • Take home your own 15 cm mosaic artwork.
  • Hot drinks and snacks provided while you work.
Knowledge required

After graduating from Central Saint Martins in 2012 with a BA in fine art, I built a successful career in set and interior design before deciding to retrain. I wanted to break away from the fast-paced and wasteful production industry, and master a traditional craft where I could use my hands to make something beautiful.
I landed on mosaic, as it's a craft which ties into my interior design practice, and I fell in love with the process instantly. The beauty of mosaic is that there really are no shortcuts, making it slow-paced and mindful, and you can also see the hand of the maker in each tile, making each creation truly unique.
I've since been classically trained at the London School of Mosaic, where I was taught the traditional Roman, Byzantine and neo-classical methods of working, as well as an in-depth history of the craft. I now work on custom mosaic commissions in my cosy Margate studio (with my dog Presley sleeping beside me) and my work borrows from the rich history of the ornamental arts while integrating my contemporary signature style.
I began running mosaic workshops last year locally in Margate, keen to share what I'd learn with everyone. The workshops proved really popular, and I've since been invited to host corporate team-bonding workshops - including regular events for an international bank based in Canary Wharf - as well as for private parties and events.
