some really great tips here thank you Helen!

Would mod podge be an acceptable material to use as a substitute for pva?

I'm just getting started in mosaics,and your videos are very helpful. Many thanks.

I think you are the only one showing this difficult process in such clarity! As a beginner, I feel it's a constant struggle between two inner voices: One constantly says, "Oh no! What an ugly gap! That's way too amateurish!" and the other one must constantly calm the first one down: "Trust me. In the end, it will work. Grouting and a little distance will help. No one will notice!" 😃

Im just getting started in mosaics,and this was exactly the information i needed. Great instructional video,many thanks. I look forward to more of your videos. Best wishes.

Love your videos.

Great content. Could you recommend a book that has an A to Z tutorial in this fashion?

what adhesive do you use for glass tiles on glass base/

Thank you so much, this was so informative.

Hello Can i make mosaic from olive seads

This has been so helpful! I’ve been wanting to do some things for outdoors but was unsure of what’s different. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I saw your link for the video using glue, that’s quite helpful too! Will be sure to watch it also!

Wonderful tutorial and so informative.... Thank you so much 🙏😊

Can I use fiberglass mesh to attach my mosaic to then bring it outside and attach to a concrete block wall? The wall is approximately 3 1/2 meters by 1 1/2 meters. Thank you for these lessons.

I made a mistake. I'm 500+ hours into a glazed porcelain mosaic meant for outdoor.

If using the tire bond, would you also need the depth of glue to be 1/2 or more?

Off to buy materials and a tile nipper!😀

How long do you leave the grouted mosaic before you wipe it off?

Hi Could you tell me exactly which hanging fixings and sizes to order please and the name/s of the company/ies you buy them from, please.

So nice to see the entire process. ❤

Thank you. Great tutorial. So is grouting unnecessary/optional? Thank you

They are not so accurate I bought one a few years ago ❤it’s still quite hard work

Awesome!

Fabulous!!!!! Thank you ❤

Thank you Helen for this very clear explanation of traditional backgrounds. I’ve just completed a koala up a gum tree on a large piece of pvc pipe. I’m not sure now how to complete the background which will be sky mixture of blues. I’ve done it all in glass. Any ideas? Libby

Great clear instructions. I think this video along with paperback method has saved my smashed plate table from disaster…I hope.

Merci pour les explications claires !

I know absolutely nothing about making a mosaic but I have all kinds of marble tiles pieces. A lot of them are the result of marble cutters practicing various shapes, curls, etc. Several different types and colors but all some kind of stone, including quite a bit of lapis lazuli. So I really want to attempt my first mosaic. I'm betting with the weight of the tile pieces that I'm going to want a pretty strong adhesive.... but I'll be flying by the seat of pants on this so everyone wish my luck!

👍🏽

Thank you, Helen! Always love watching your videos. :)

Thanks for this

Thank you! Very useful and just in time for me👍

You are very kind to show all the detail. You are a good teacher. ❤

Helen, thank you for guidance. Do you recommend mesh for flooring? I'm wanting to mosaic my (indoor) hallway 😁😁

It's so helpful to see the mosaic being created from the beginning. Thank you.

Easy to understand your directions. Thank you.

3:32 You could also use "nori" paste, which is just the same but instead of wheat flour, it's made of rice flour. It's a bit stronger (safer to avoid losing any tesserae), but water will dissolve it just the same. You can find it ready-to-use in most markets. Also, bookbinders' glue (which is the real wheat flour) can be found, but because of "being modern", some brands sell not-real wheat glue as "bookbinders"... so you should check the composition before buying them.

Thank you, Helen and Rachel. Such a genuine and warm conversation and sharing about your art space, materials and methods. I feel so happy and motivated after listening to you guys. Beautiful work, Rachel. Thank you, Helen, for this series. Really admire you both as artists and your own unique persons.

okay, so you put on the thinset, what glue do you use to add your tess? I am assuming that the thinset is just the base?

Hello from Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA … I have plenty of mosaic supplies to start creating! Love your videos!! BTW, I love your sweater (plus you are wearing a yellow one of the same pattern on another YT!!) thank you!!

It is wonderful to find such a resource for making classic mosaics. Would you present a lesson on how you prepare for and create a portrait in mosaics? That would be amazing. Thank you for your work.

Fascinating. Thank you.

Such an amazing series!!! Can't wait to see other artists talking about their art and space!! Bravo!

Never enough shelving! This interview was really lovely! 💕

Which glue could be used as an alternative? I don't use animal-edrived materials nor ingredients for ethical reasons, so in order to try this what could I use?

Thank you Helen ! I struggle to create keystones from 1x1cm glass tesserae. Would you advise even trying at all ? Thank you for all of these useful tutorials ! 🙏

Thanks for the interview. I did not know about Rachael. Lovely work! Great job, Helen.

love the video. needed to hear real space .. Create or clean. Create everytime:)

New mosaicist here. I made three small mosaics while I was in Rome in February and March this year studying Italian. I loved studying Italian and I loved my time in the mosaic studio. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and it's a pity that the Institute of Mosaic Art closed in 2016 or else I would go there to learn more. I have looked around the SF Bay Area and there seems to be nothing. I love your videos. Thanks you, Helen. Do you know of any mosaic "kits" that I could purchase so that I can make mosaics at home or any online classes? Thanks again. I should add that I used the indirect method when I made my small pieces and I worked with marble tesserae. I would like to continue in the Roman style whether direct or indirect. Thanks.
