The February 19th Lemont Artists Guild meeting, will begin at 7 PM at the Homer Township Public Library, 14320 W 151st St, Homer Glen, IL. Deana "Dee" Everson will demonstrate and discuss glass cutting techniques and tools, glues and mortar, grouting, substrates, mosaic applications and how she does her 3D glass mosaic artwork. Dee’s mosaics evolve out of her love and passion to experiment with a variety of textures, colors and sizes. She currently resides in Orland Park, IL and holds a degree in Graphic Design from the American Academy of Art (Chicago) and studied at the Chicago School of Mosaics. Dee states "There's such beauty in colored glass. I love all the textures, transparent qualities and intense colors... especially when the light pours through the pieces and my art comes ALIVE." Dee is also an art instructor for
children and adults and explores all kinds of mediums, but is most enamored by colored glass. Visit her website at www.artclassesbydee.com
