Mini Mosaic Make & Exchange Extravaganza with Barbara Dybala
Friday, October 31, 8:00am – 12:00pm
Workshop: Hands-On
All Levels: Artistic Development
Price: $185 (Includes $10 Materials Fee)
In this 4 hr workshop, you will leave with a new mosaic friend, well, probably several friends. As well as experiencing a double blind mosaic exchange. All mosaics will be exhibited for discussion.
We may labor for weeks, months, or years on a mosaic in our studio; these quick mosaic challenges help the mind shift and reboot. This process can be a recurring event or whatever you wish it to be. In the process, you will start to collect mosaic art. This is the gateway to purchasing larger pieces of art as well.
What to expect…..
- VIEW a collection of mini mosaics from 3 years of double-blind exchanges that occurred four times a year.
- HEAR about the challenges, which could have been a material, shape of surface, combination of unlike items, or even a theme.
- ANNOUNCEMENT of the day’s workshop mini mosaic challenge!!!!!!
- CREATE your mini mosaic 3hrs
- BLIND EXCHANGE, Ohh, WOW PHOTOGRAPH! 20 min
- The mosaic you will be creating is only 2×3 in (give or take)
Students, please bring:
Nippers, glue. Any fun glass, think small. Your Mini topic will be given to you at the start of class.
Texas artist, Barbara Dybala, lives art… and art surrounds her. Creating art with mosaic has been part of her creative journey for many years. It is Barbara’s creative thought process that encompasses everything she sees. Barbara’s love affair is with designing and creating one-of-a-kind works of art that inspire others to feel deeply, to think, and to passionately create. People of all ages have come to discover their own creative passion through her workshops and classes. In 2010, Barbara and her husband, David, decided to free themselves from the tightness of suburban living and build and live in an environment that feeds the soul. They purchased 8 acres of land in rural Rockwall County and developed a comfortable home, studio, and area they named Hidden Mosaic. barbaradybala.com
