Ep. 218 IRISES FOR THE MOSES IN THE NILE MOSAIC!
Ep. 218 IRISES FOR THE MOSES IN THE NILE MOSAIC!
Hey Everyone, welcome to my studio!
I am working on the 2nd of three Moses mosaics! I have been commissioned by a church to make three mosaics that will go around the sides of a fountain, in between three spillways. They are all in the theme of Moses. Because the fountain is round, I will be working on AR fiberglass mesh with thinset as my adhesive. I am using stained glass and 24k gold smalti.
In Episode 218, I finish the water lilies and start the irises on the right side.
That's Putting It Together, Ep. 218. Thanks for watching! See you next time.

Julie how do you decide which technique to use, the strip method vs the contact paper method?
My first choice is strip method, because it is much more efficient. For some of those long folds in the clothing, it seemed easier to start with the correct taper and not nip that length to fit. For the intricacies of the faces, hands and feet I needed the precision of using contact paper pattern pieces.
I was curious how you would manage to create these irises, but you've done it masterfully. Amazing work!👏👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
I searched but couldn't find the video that shows the substrate you are using for this garden sculpture. I would love to know what it is made of, thank you.
It is made with Pal Tiya. You can purchase here: www.paltiya.com/
Lovely to watch you work and to see this gorgeous piece come together ❤
Thank you so much!
❤AMAZZINNNG❤
Thanks Rupa!
Hi Julie! I love watching you create your magic! Is there any worry of the black permanent marker showing through the glass? Might be a silly question. Thanks!!
Not silly at all. It would show through if the glass had any translucency to it. The greens are pretty opaque though so I can't see it. It might fade in sunlight over time if it did show.
@@mazzonimosaics8222 thank you so much!!
Wow!! I downloaded and saved every single video you made about this fountain- it is unbelievable!!!
Thank you! I just cleaned out the basin this week. I love it!
Absolutely Beautiful! 😮 QUESTION: Do you have to coat top to insure no sharps?
I do not coat it. The pieces are all pretty level with no shards sticking out.
I love to watch you mark and gently nip the glass into the shapes you need. I don’t find it boring at all when you’re showing us what you do in real time-I learn so much that way.
Thank you so much!
Hello, I enjoy your videos. Are you using the the self adhesive mesh. You make it look so easy.😊
No. This is AR mesh and I am using thin set as my adhesive. I have it in a baggie with the corner cut off.
My weekly fix. Thanx for posting the update. I love how you inspire me to play with colours
Awesome! Thank you!
Julie's mosaic videos make my day on Mondays...
You are too kind!
I love watching your process. Some artists would tape the dry positioned irises then glue them at the same time. Do you ever do that? It seemed a lot of work to remove all the pieces and glue them individually.
I did that with the faces on the figures since there are itty bitty pieces I didn't want to dislodge. The irises were a bit more flexible as far as positioning the petals. Placing each piece makes it easier to control the thinset that might squish up between pieces.
The Lillie’s and irises came out great. This project is going to be amazing. Thanks.
Thanks so much 😊
Julie this is looking amazing, just so beautiful. I’ve just been making irises as well to go onto my gazing ball and finding the right depth of colour is very difficult but yours are wonderful. Great work as always. 😊
I used a tiny bit of Bullseye deep royal purple that I had leftover from the wall. It has the truest purple hue I've seen in glass. Also very $$$$ with gold in it!
Beautiful. Purple glass is never quite the brightness my mind imagines, especially once cut. I really like how eve bluer in tone your irises read purple. TFS
Thank you! 😊I left out the more violet shades.
Wow! 💕
Thanks, Dianne!
Love the nutcrackers!!!!!
Oh, thank you! My dear mother-in-law gave them to me ages ago. They kept begging for glass until I finally tackled them.
I know making these videos and especially editing is a pain. I just wanted to mention each episode I’ve learned some valuable tips. I’ve come to realize the bad habit of precutting bits of glass, trying jigsaw them whenever they might fit, is NOT the way to go. I love to watch how you take the strips of glass and cut them into place. I get there but huge time saver! It may seem simple to most but an “Ahh ha” moment for me. Thank you so much. 🌸
Depends on the project. Occasionally I precut an inventory of pieces to choose from.
Hi Your wok is spectacular...i wish i could be that god....i would like to know what you use to stick the pieces of glass, i use vinavil glue and i wonder if i do wrong. Thank you for your reply and keep posting.
I'm using thinset for this exterior project. It depends on what you are making and where it will be displayed. I am not familiar with that glue, but if it is a white PVA, it might not be suitable for exterior applications but fine for interior work. It would also depend of the weight of your tessera. If you are using thick heavy pieces, PVA is not the best option.
Hello Julie, thank you for your reply. I wondered how you trace your composition on to your blue bird board. I think you said you trace your roses and leaves off your photos, once you have done that how do your get it on to your board in the black pen. Thank you, love your work and watching your videos.
I use carbon transfer paper when I trace the design. The transfer is fairly faint, so I then go over it with a sharpie so I can see it better.
Love this video! Thank you for sharing. Is there a reason why you like to avoid triangle shapes in your crazy paving?
The simple explanation is that a triangle can draw your eye which breaks up how the pieces flow.
Hello, can I please ask a couple questions. When you draw your compositions, do you freehand draw them? Also, with the Composition of the Roses, did you have a colour photo to reference to for the placement of the colours as I noted you have a variety of colours in each Rose. Thank you so much, love watching your work.
I didn't make any roses in this video, but when I made my Bluebird fountain, I showed how I designed and made each rose. th-cam.com/video/jf4xrtVgED0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rSETW58EcI9jVrfr I usually have some sort of photo reference to start from. I made simplified roses in a bouquet in this video: th-cam.com/video/MUXZIdJxcr8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dGecro00AV7FJ-rd
I have so missed your videos! Hoping you were having a nice summer break. But the work on this part of the fountain mosaic is incredible. So loving the process! 🙏💕
Oh thank you!
Your patience and accuracy amaze me on every piece your create. What a great artist you are. Thanks for sharing
Wow, thank you!
Oh my gosh! The basket is gorgeous! Fabulous job! How did you cut the pieces to fit around the basket vertical lines? Wondering how you cut an oval into the side of a piece. Thanks for sharing your work with us. So enjoyable! Hugz, Tree
Thank you! I start with straight strips the same width and cut each into three pieces. Then I nipped to fit the curve, which was very slight. I used my wheeled nippers to take a bite out of the edges where the vertical lines are.
I always love when you show some of your work in real time- I’d especially like to see how you cut the pieces for the lilies. Do you eyeball the pieces or use contact paper to trace?
I've been eyeballing the pieces. They are a bit off from the design, but the scale is the same.
My weekly fix. Thanx for posting. I love watching how you use colours.
Yay! Thank you!
Do you give courses to learn how to make fillati?
No. I learned from Mosaic Arts Online. Rachel Sager has a class called Intuitive Malmischiato where she teaches the basics.
Every time I watch I'm just in awe. When you remove loose pieces in order to start adhering, what surface do you set them on? My pieces get so jumbled that they don't go back they way I originally laid them out. 🙃
You are too kind! I just set them on whatever I have that is mobile. Lately I've been using waffle paper that my glass came with. Sometimes I use little boards.
Beautiful lilies. Thank you for the inspiring video!
So nice of you! Thanks for watching!
Julie, what adhesive are you using on the mesh/stained glass? This is quite a task and you are an inspiration.
Thanks so much. I am using thinset.
@@mazzonimosaics8222 I appreciate your answering. I know you must be a busy lady with that project. Good luck and I will keep up with it. It is beautiful.
good catch on the shadow! I just made my first cat and the shadows were a challenge. BTW, where are your shoes young lady!!!
I know, right?!? Shadows can make or break it!
The basket is wonderful! Very interesting to see to see how you put that together. TFS
I sort of weaved it together.
The basket and lillies came out great. Love watching the process. Thanks.
Thanks so much!
I love watching you create ❤
Thank you!
It's absolutely fascinating to watch you putting it all together ❤
Thanks, Rupa!
Remarkable!
Thank you!
Very useful tip. Loving how this piece is coming together ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
These are amazingly beautiful. Makes me so hopeful to give it a go myself. Thank you very much for the inspiration.
Have fun!
Wow! Watching you work is amazing. Love your creativity. I have lots of small pieces from making stained glass panels. You've motivated me to give mosaics a try. Thank you for sharing your skills. New Subscriber!
Thank you so much!
Hi Julie, I love your videos and am getting good ideas and tips from watching. I am curious why you represented 3 of the saints as animals, but Saint Matthew as a boy.
Good question. It is a long standing tradition to represent the four evangelists this way. Saint Mathew is depicted as an angel.
It’s looking beautiful Julie!
@@dmaas2580 Thank you!
I'm curious. Do you watch or listen to anything while you are working???
Great question! About half the time I either watch something on my I-pad or listen to music or podcasts. Sometimes I need to just focus on the artwork though.
@@mazzonimosaics8222 Funny. I thought the iPad belonged to both of us.
Yes, that is funny!
Wonderful Julie but the making of the lady on the right??? Sure you would have shared and its just me that somehow missed but don't think so... please clarify 🙏
Hello Rupa! It was going so slowly that I did not record it. Also needed a break from all the editing!
I really appreciate all you artists out there for putting so... much effort into filming editing adding the music n voiceovers all of which must be taking as much time as (if not more than) the mosaic itself - so I get the abstention - must have felt like a detox!!!!
I love our choice of colours for the mountains
Thank you! I'll be bringing that combo into the second mosaic as well.
Prachtig om te zien met hoeveel perfectie je werkt.
You are too kind! Thank you.
Incredible . I don’t know how you get the faces so accurate . You are amazing .
Thank you so much 😀 Keeping it simple is the tricky part. I'd love to add more detail, but it's just not practical for this project!
Fabulous ❤ love the red chosen for the blanket and the folds! Faces and arms, are once again, beautifully shadowed
Thank you! 😊
