We’ll begin with learning a variety of ways to construct the base and interior support and then how to build the individual pieces that stack to create your totem. We’ll be working on a slightly smaller scale so that you’ll be able to bring your stacking pieces home with you if you do not live locally. Once you are registered\, your design ideas will be discussed via email with Marsha before the class. \nThis workshop is open to students of all levels. Although some mosaic experience may be helpful\, it is not absolutely necessary. \nSkills learned in this workshop would be excellent for those who want to learn techniques for exterior mosaic sculpture. \n  \n*Students are responsible to bring their own tools and may bring some supplies for their personal project. Materials list & instructions on packing will be sent after registration. \nSign up through the Austin Mosaic School website here: \nhttp://austinmosaicschool.com/workshops.html#!/May-17-19-3D-Mosaic-Totems-with-Marsha-Rafter/p/128738095/category=0 URL:https://marsharafter.com/event/mosaic-totems-in-austin-tx/ LOCATION:Austin Mosaic School\, ​1810 W Anderson Lane\, Austin\, Texas\, 78757 CATEGORIES:Other Locations,Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://marsharafter.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/IMG_4213-e1547679498778.jpg GEO:30.3551388;-97.7287884 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Austin Mosaic School ​1810 W Anderson Lane Austin Texas 78757;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=​1810 W Anderson Lane:geo:-97.7287884,30.3551388 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20190521T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20190521T123000 DTSTAMP:20260526T232214 CREATED:20190311T175223Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190414T144152Z UID:2904-1558432800-1558441800@marsharafter.com SUMMARY:Tuesday Morning Classes - May 21 DESCRIPTION:There are so many creative projects in process in the studio –  a variety of wall pieces\, mandalas\, garden art pieces\,  a large “Tree of Life”\, and totems.
