Mosaic Garden with Reverse Garbage

Today my son and I did a mosaic workshop at Reverse Garbage with Billyara Aboriginal Art. We helped create work to contribute to the mosaic yarning circle for the nearby Yenmala Nura Garden. It was a great opportunity to learn some new skills and talk to other artists. My son particularly loved to use the tile cutter and now wants me to buy one. The mosaic circle will go where the tyre is currently in the pictures.






I love the work that Reverse Garbage does. They often run workshops with adults and children using recycled materials. I have had many opportunities to visit their shop and buy various items for my recycled art and of course I always have to purchase something for my children, Today I was lucky enough to find exactly what I needed - lids from coffee cups. This will help me finish a dress I am making which you can see in my solo exhibition in June this year.
