mosaic techniques

Mosaic techniques involve creating images or designs by assembling small pieces of materials such as glass, stone, or ceramic—called tesserae—closely fitted together. Artists carefully choose and arrange these pieces to form a cohesive picture, emphasizing color, texture, and pattern. The process requires precision and an eye for detail, as the placement of each piece impacts the overall effect. Mosaics are durable and decorative, often used in flooring, walls, and artwork, blending craftsmanship with artistic expression to produce intricate, lasting designs.
