Upcycling Mosaic Experience Workshop
with Linda DeCarlo

For Ages: 18+ (Students ages 12-17 may register with an adult)
Description: Create Meaningful Mirrors, Frames and Collages with Upcycled Materials! Upcycle found objects into a unique mosaic! All it takes is one unexpected find to begin a collection of materials to create a story. While exploring diverse textures, shapes and colors, you will learn a process of arranging a mosaic, based on materials that appeal to you! The catalyst for the theme is derived from objects that spark a memory or begin an imaginary story. Using traditional and unconventional materials and mosaic tools, we will create a one of a kind mosaic art experience. Materials of ceramics, glass, metals, wood, shells, beads (my favorite) and wires will be provided to share. You are encouraged to bring along objects/materials that could be included in your unique mosaic and to share.
Supplies:
- A found object that brings you joy that could be part of your mosaic or hang from your mosaic
- Materials to share: broken or not- tiles, plates, glass, rocks, jewelry
- If you have them: Goggles, gloves, a metal file, any cutters applicable
Instructor Bio: My love of environmental art naturally thrives in upcycling materials into jewelry, mobile sculptures, and mosaics for indoors and outdoors. As a Baltimore County Art Teacher of K-12, one highlight was sharing environmental art projects at a National Art Educators Convention in New Orleans. I’ve enjoyed mentoring many art interns from McDaniel College, Towson University and Maryland Institute of Art. Since retired, I was invited to become a partner at Off Track Art Gallery here in Westminster, I volunteer in the Reisterstown Improvement Association projects and am now the President of the Franklin Garden Club. I’m excited to share ideas and materials for upcycling mosaics and to hear about the treasures you bring to this creative workshop!

Instructor Bio: Kim has always loved stained glass and was signed up for a class about 35 years ago. Well, the class was cancelled due to lack of interest. Fast forward to 2016 a friend was discussing his plans to learn stained glass and finish the projects his wife started but sadly passed on before she could finish them. That nspired Kim to signup for a class at Carroll Community College before retiring from her job of 38 years. She was hooked and it became her passion. Her skills have improved to professional quality over the last nine years. Her Stained glass creations are represented by Off track Art Gallery. She has even started making her own patterns. She loves unique abstract art, lots of color and incorporating vintage plates in her pieces. There is just something about t he sun shining through the beautiful colored glass and the rainbows thrown about the room that makes you happy. You might say, “ Kim Jennings has a real passion for color”
