Art is a way of life for me. In my studio I create and teach mosaic and believe that any person can find a way to express himself through it. That is why I find it highly important to give each and every student a personal attention. The happiness I feel seeing how joyful people get when creating mosaic is unprecedented. It fills me with energies to visit students whose houses are full of beautiful pieces they continue to create.I studied Art and teaching Art in University and worked as a graphic designer for many years. I have specialized different fields of art over the years - painting on paper, wood and silk, drawing on walls in children's rooms, polymer clay, stained glass, mosaic and more.My love to colors can be seen in my works. Each is special and created with the highest attention to details. I always enjoy planning, designing and of course seeing my plans come true.

INTRODUCTION
There are many methods for making mosaics. After learning some, you can choose the most appropriate way for you. The mosaic art combine different materials, shapes, cutting styles, designs, and bases.
In this book, which is the sixth in a series of my mosaic books, I decided to focus on mosaic mesh projects.
Why Mesh?
Lately, I have noticed that my students really love working on mesh. They decorate their house walls this way, especially outside walls. The results are beautiful and colorful. I decided to share my knowledge with you. In this book, you will find many examples of mosaic mesh work that you can use to decorate your house walls - inside or outside.
One of the uses of the mesh is as a secondary preparation station, when the original preparation location for the mosaic work is too far from the installation area. The flexibility of the mesh allows us to make the mosaic work at home or in the studio, then we can easily pack (also in separate parts) it up and stick it in the appropriate place. The mesh is easy to cut so you can create different forms of mosaic art work, not just straight, like cutout. Much easier than cutting a complex shape in boards, with a saw.
Here are some examples of mosaic works that include mesh as a base:
- Stairs
- Name, letters, and house numbers
- Uneven shapes
- Bathroom tiles
- Pictures you want to copy (and put behind the mesh)
- A big wall image that is divided into parts
- Joint Group working
In this book we will learn two techniques of mosaic on mesh. The first one is sticking pieces directly on
