- Following on from my video which explains the Roman mosaic rules*, watch this video to find how why these rules matter.
In this video we will take a close look at a variety of mosaics, some which use the Roman rules and some which dont, in order to show you why the rules matter.
Or do they? Watch this video to see how you, the mosaic artist, can take the rules and apply them when you want or need them, and ignore them when you dont.
Rules are made to be broken, but mosaics are a very particular art form and it helps to know how to control the distraction of the tesserae to create a coherent and harmonious flow.
Then you can smash it!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills 🌻
Harmony, balance, direction, energy...the vocabulary is important as are the attending definitions, descriptions and examples of both good works and bad works for comparison. I really like your efforts and teaching style! Naturally, I am a subscriber, a student of yours!
That's so good to hear - thank you 🙏😀
Great video
Thank you Helen! You have explained that so well! 💕
I'm so glad that it is helpful! 😀
I’m doing the diploma course at London school of mosaic and enjoy your videos very much.
Lucky you. I am sure it's brilliant in every way. If I could turn back the clock, I'd do it too! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos 😀
Cool 👍
Hello from Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA … I have plenty of mosaic supplies to start creating! Love your videos!! BTW, I love your sweater (plus you are wearing a yellow one of the same pattern on another YT!!) thank you!!
I love that you spotted that the sweater was the same! It's so warm and comfortable that i had to have another one for the rare occasions when the first one is the wash 😀🤪
I use to knit my own sweaters back in college … hard to find simple patterns with that neckline shape .. thank you for the videos… mine are on taxes .. not as fun as yours!! 😅
This is the best explanation and justification of Roman rules that I’ve seen. Thank you.
Thanks so much Paul! 😀🙏
Or in my own words, the background pulls the whole together! Thats what Impressionism was able to.do.
Your Byzantine mosaic pretty good
Thank you! 😀
