Product Description

Product Description

Mosaic is an ancient and exciting decorative art form. This colourful book contains over 200 motifs to copy and develop, whether you are a complete beginner or a more experienced mosaic artist. A comprehensive techniques section gives step-by-step instructions on everything from choosing materials and selecting colour combinations to cutting and grouting tiles. The directory features a wide range of themes from animals, birds and marine life to flowers, cultural symbols and children's motifs. Clear designs are easy to scale and copy. A gallery section shows how the motifs can be used to decorate ceramics, furniture and accessories - or be works of art in their own right.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, an absolute bible for mosaic fans, 6 Oct 2007
By Mrs. D. L. Hatch "MoonAngel" (Essex, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have never come across a book so full of inspiration and clear details. This book has become my bible, I refer to it at all times. It is clearly written and the photos and illustrations are very easy to understand. All mosaic artists, from beginner to expert will love this book. The technical part is fully explained, so if you are new to mosaicing you can find all the information you need to start you off. The more experienced will find the great number of design ideas really useful. It covers every possible design you could need, including alphabets and numbers, sea life, nursery, botanical, animals and lots, lots more. This book is more than worth its weight in gold (or tesserae!!). I couldn't do mosaic without it. FANTASTIC AND RECOMMENDED.

3.0 out of 5 stars Mostly for nurseries, 6 April 2008
By M. K. Lechner ""Mikey"" (Stockholm Sweden) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book did'nt suit me at all. It is very pedagogical with step by step illustratons. And it contains a great number of motifs including All trhe letters of the alphabet. And the book is divided into chapters like patterns and borders; animals, letters, flowers, figures and so on

There is a special chapter for nursery-motifs, but I couldn't really see any difference from these motifs than from those in the rest of the book. If you like small, often very colourful mosaics in a, I would say, a bit naïve style, this book is for you.
