Extract from back cover of book:
Traditional mosaics are created by combining small pieces of brightly coloured tile to make elaborate pictures. Scroll saw mosaics follow the same principle. Simply use basic segmentation techniques and the patterns provided here to make your own brightly coloured scroll saw mosaics.
-
First, cut the pattern pieces from wood with a scroll saw
- Second, round the
edges with sandpaper
- Third, apply brightly coloured acrylic paint
- And
finally, glue the pieces back together
The result is a stunning piece of finished artwork with the smooth, polished look of a tile mosaic.
Includes basic cutting tips for scroll saw segmentation techniques and 30 numbered and colour-coded mosaic patterns.
About the Author: Scroll sawing is not Frank Droege's first love, but it does rank a close second behind traditional painting. Always one who enjoys colour, Frank has found that scroll saw segmentation techniques allow him to combine the artistic side of painting with the more material side of scrolling.
