Reseña del editor
Those who admire the beauty of mosaic art and decoration are often put off at trying their own hand at it. How on earth does a mosaic artist get started? This big, beautifully illustrated book provides the answer. The author, an experienced mosaic artist, instructs in the core techniques of preparing baseboards, cutting and gluing tiles, grouting, and creating designs. She also lists all needed tools and equipment and explains their uses. Finally, she presents 15 projects for budding mosaic artists, allowing them to master the techniques and create beautiful finished pieces as they learn. The projects include everything from a still-life panel suitable for framing to a decorative design to embellish an outdoor path or patio. More than 500 captioned color photos show and explain every aspect of creating mosaic art.

(back cover)
Everything you need to know to start making beautiful mosaics
Learn all of the core techniques
Sections throughout the book teach all the basic skills, such as transferring motifs, cutting and grouting tiles, using color, and working with a range of materials, from broken pottery and tesserae to beautiful millefiori tiles.
16 easy-to-follow projects
Each project is demonstrated with both large-format step-by-step photographs, and close-up photographs that give added clarity to tricky stages. At-a-glance panels show the tools and materials youÂ’ll need.
Easily scaleable drawings
Scale plans can be reproduced to the required size on graph paper or scaled up or down on a photocopier. They include simple geometric designs, heart and flower motifs, and more elaborate birds, animals, and portraits.
Graded—for ease of use
These techniques are graded from the most basic to the more advanced, though all skills are clearly taught and are easily achievable for beginners.
Actual-size tile gauge
Actual-size photographs demonstrate the range of tiles needed to complete your projects.
