Creating portraits in mosaic is a great way to celebrate a person of historical importance, an important family member or to recognise the achievements of a person in your local community. Portraiture in mosaic has a long standing history rooted in Roman and Byzantine mosaic with portraits of emperors, gods and icons being made in mosaic.

So enjoyable an activity everything else disappears. Just as feeding for the soul is getting to chat to all the interesting people who chose to do it too. The instruction is relaxed and happens when you need it, making the class suitable for any level. It’s a forgiving medium but also one with lots of opportunity for creativity. 👍

I am really enjoy my Portrait Mosiac course. I have learnt a lot from the instruction my teacher. The group is lovely and the attendees are very supportive. The learning at the school are flexible and kind in their approach. Thank you

I love the mosaic art, and this is a very good way to get started and get tips and advice on any project. Tutors are very helpful and knowledgeable.
