Mosaic Class

Prego. It is 1 in the morning and Kathy and I are still in the class room working on our projects. I am taking a break but Kathy is cutting away! Yes, we are having a fabulous time! We have been working since about 9 this morning with a few breaks here and there! We had a falafel lunch beside the canal, had a boring lecture on the history of mosaics then a lovely dinner under the stars (con bugs!) on a different canal! We have found the grocery store (Billa!) but no peanut butter for Kathy. Mr. Orsoni does not like my Canary wharf project, he thinks it looks like Chicago! That is not good. Lynn is not working in smalti but her gold (which is a very deep purple!) is coming along great! Kathy & Polli are both working in blue to great effect and Holly is struggling to cut some difficult yellow & oranges! We have one male member of our class. His name is Patrick and he is an artiect hailing from Savannah. He is a delightful addition to our group, easygoing and tolerant of our antics.

Hi, I'm Mirta and I'm working with the girls during the class. I have to say that they behave, and work really hard. they look like schoolgirls during a school trip,they are afraid of boring lessons and laugh a lot! Antonella, the teacher, is sorry because they forgot to mention the wonderful coffee she prepared for us during the lesson :))
