Animal Portrait In Mosaics
with Bonnie Fitzgerald


4-Day Workshop
Thursday, June 11th  10am - 5pm
Friday, June 12th   10am - 5pm
Saturday, June 13th  10am - 5pm
Sunday, June 14th 10am - 12pm

$440 plus $55 separate supply fee

Create a stylized glass mosaic portrait of an animal of your choice in this immersive 3.5-day workshop. Whether your subject is a beloved dog, a colorful bird, a fish, or even a bee, you’ll work directly from your own photograph to translate personality and expression into glass.

Through demonstrations, presentations, and hands-on studio time, you’ll explore the essential principles of successful mosaic portraiture. Topics include color and tone relationships, simplifying photographic information, perspective, and expressive cutting techniques. You’ll also learn specialized laying styles to best capture the character, texture, and movement of your chosen animal.

This workshop is an excellent introduction to portrait work and a meaningful next step for artists looking to expand their technical and creative skills. All levels are welcome; mosaic or stained glass experience is helpful but not required.

Students must submit their image electronically two weeks in advance. A separate $55 supply fee, payable to the instructor on the first day, includes scaled image preparation, reference materials, a prepared substrate, design supplies, and grout. Each student will complete approximately one square foot of mosaic.

For a more detailed workshop description, examples of student work from past workshops, and a detailed supply list, visit maverickmosaics.com.

Some mosaic or stained glass experience is helpful, but not required.
