Inspired by this beautiful work today's Mini Makers offers you an insight into the making of the piece and shares the skills and knowledge for trying your hand at mosaic making. Today's session will be led by Melanie Watts, a Buckinghamshire based mosaic artist who, in her own work, produces both 2d and 3d mosaic art including wall hangings, flooring, sculptural and public art pieces.
