IdeaIn this course we propose to teach the basic technique of making a mosaic with different materials. For the beginner, we will us ceramic tiles to copy a chosen model. Instead, with the advanced level student, we will use glaze of marble to create an original design. With the knowledge of the basic technique of the traditional mosaic, learned during the course, the student will be able to make, by him self, a mosaic in the classic style.
