About this lesson

Mosaicist Kate Rattray explains andamento through the Roman 'Hunting Dogs' mosaic at Cirencester, then documents her own sketching process for a sunset-themed mosaic series, showing how directional tesserae lines were chosen to suggest growth, wind and movement before cutting began.
