For over 25 years I have mosaiced murals in ceramic, marble, glass, slate and more. We have great fun in weekly workshops bringing designs to life. When not teaching, I mosaic critically endangered wildlife, giving them a small platform to raise awareness. I have won awards in international wildlife competitions and exhibited at the Royal Geographical Society and Natural History Museum as well as all over the UK. Regular commissions are undertaken, please enquire.

Mosaic/chat/create! with award winning mosaicist Emma Abel
"Great creative day! Emma's tuition is easy to follow with tips on design, colours and techniques. So nice to have a small class so you can get all the help you need. Next time I would definitely spend more time on the design prior to coming so I could crack on quicker as I ran out of time a little. Would definitely like to do course in the future."

"It was lovely to meet you Amy and your mosaic sunset worked very well with the colours and andamento you chose. Thanks so much for this review."
"What I enjoyed the most is that you provide the right amount of support. Not too much so I still feel I did it by myself but you were there with brilliant ideas when I got stuck."

"Your sunflower worked very well as a mosaic Isabel, thanks so much for the Review."
"- Emma was fantastic at adapting the workshop to meet the needs of the learner I support. She was excellent at helping us plan in advance so we could make the most of our time together in her beautiful workshop. Emma’s instructions were clear and concise, and we were really happy with what we created. A wonderfully creative new experience and such a fun and relaxing way to spend a morning. Thank you again Emma for all of your flexibility, excellent teaching and wonderful workshop space. We hope we will be able to come back again soon."

"Thank you very much for your comments Emma. It was a pleasure to give a private workshop to you and your Learner, and her Monty dog worked very well as a mosaic. We had fun and I'm so glad your client enjoyed the experience."
"I attended a workshop with Emma and it was a thoroughly enjoyable day. Her teaching was clear, encouraging and thoughtful. We started with the design and learnt about different styles depending on how we wanted the final piece to look. We also learnt about cutting and placement. As the day progressed Emma helped us as we worked on our projects and we went home with a finished project. I will definitely book another course with Emma. Her own designs are on view in the workshop space and I’ve never seen any mosaic work like hers, it’s brilliant!"
