Heidi Ansley Mosaic Workshop 12 & 13 June 2026
Heidi Ansley is a gifted glass mosaic coach. We've seen living proof of it. She sends examples of the work of her mosaic school students to the hotel and they sell like hotcakes. Particularly to foreign visitors.
But there's something more here. She's suggesting you bring your pet to the workshop. Dogs we are good for: We're dog friendly . And gold fish too. Cats, being cats, are little more challenging - particularly if there are goldfish around . Hmm...your bird ? As long as it's in cage.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.. Yes, the pictures from Karoo Ink do tell a story. But it's the comments of the participants that paint their own picture of what a gifted teacher and spirit builder Tee Hardman is. It was the best of times . Standby. There's smudge on the distant horizon (Oct) called charcoal.
