You will be able to work with Casey Van Loon to plan, in detail, what is needed to complete your mosaic project. This class is meant for those who want to continue their work independently with the added benefit of consultation from an experienced CMS instructor.
CMS offers continuing students an opportunity to work in our studio on their independent, ongoing projects with available guidance from some of our most experienced CMS instructors.
