Learn the Basics of Mosaics

If you ever wanted to try mosaics but didn't know where to begin, this guide will walk you through it. From tools to techniques, it's everything you need to feel confident starting your first piece.

A Guide to Getting Started

How it works!

Step into the world of professional art and create your own masterpiece with a DIY mosaic kit inspired by pieces I’ve submitted to exhibitions. Each kit gives you everything you need to craft a stunning, one-of-a-kind design — from hand-picked tiles to step-by-step instructions. One modular piece a month. Experience the thrill of making art that reflects the same passion, detail, and creativity as the mosaics that hang in galleries and exhibitions.

The Peacock's Awakening

"The Peacock’s Awakening” reflects the journey of growth, self-discovery, and embracing your true colors. Inspired by my own experience of understanding myself after a late neurodivergence diagnosis, this piece celebrates the courage it takes to step into your authentic self.

Each module represents a stage in that journey:

1. Awareness – recognizing who you truly are.

2. Exploration – experimenting, learning, and testing boundaries.

3. Acceptance – honoring your individuality and uniqueness.

4. Expression – revealing your full brilliance, one feather, one module at a time.

The modular design mirrors the process of growth: each piece is a step toward wholeness, a celebration of patience, resilience, and self-realization.

Individually, each module is beautiful; collectively, they create a stunning, intricate narrative of awakening.

Your Mosaic Journey Starts Here

Embark on a year-long creative adventure with our 12-piece Modular Mosaic Masterclass Kit. Each month, you’ll receive a new module, complete with all the materials and instructions you need to gradually build your mosaic masterpiece. Or if paying up front you can opt to receive all pieces at once. Perfect for hobbyists and seasoned creatives alike, this kit guides you step-by-step through cutting, placing, and grouting tiles— I recommend trying a smaller design before committing, make sure you'll stick with it.

By the end of the program, all 12 modules come together to reveal a breathtaking, cohesive artwork you created entirely by hand. Enjoy the satisfaction of learning a craft, building skill by skill, and watching your mosaic evolve piece by piece.

Monthly guided modules: Clear instructions, materials included

Online lessons: Fortnightly zoom video calls to check in and answer any questions you have come across. Capped at 10 participants per group, to encourage everyone to be seen and heard.

Flexible schedule: Complete at your own pace

Skill development: Learn techniques that last a lifetime

Community: Become part of a supportive art community of like minded people.

Perfect for gifting or self-indulgence: A journey as beautiful as the final artwork

10% of all proceeds go towards fighting sexual violence.

This handmade mosaic art story can live in your home as mosaic wall art, through the original artwork, unique art prints, premium poster, framed poster, canvas, or framed canvas, each one softly reflecting self-acceptance, neurodivergent identity, and the freedom of becoming who you always were. It can also become part of your everyday rhythm through mosaic kits, and our cup collection that has 15oz and 11oz mugs, water bottles, travel mugs, tote bags, and our clothing collection that has hoodies, t-shirts, and tank tops — small reminders that you were never too much, never not enough, and never meant to hide your true colours.
