Explore the transformative power of mosaic art as a mindful and enjoyable way to express yourself.
Becky Paton teaches mosaic classes for adults of all abilities, and in this episode she is keen to emphasize that anyone, regardless of their perceived creativity, can create beautiful pieces with the right materials and guidance.
Becky tells me about her experiences of creating mosaics with children and families in hospital settings, illustrating how art can provide comfort and a sense of normalcy during challenging times.
The conversation also delves into the importance of community among creatives, highlighting how sharing experiences and techniques can inspire and elevate one’s work.
As she embarks on writing a new mosaic book, Becky’s passion for her craft and dedication to helping others discover their creativity shines through.
