Creativity Wild Mosaics is a Sydney-based art studio and classroom.

Operating for more than a decade, it is owned by artist/teacher Miriam Ross. Miriam has been creating and teaching mosaics and craft for more than twenty years. Her goal is to give every person, no matter their age or perceived ability, an opportunity to create a beautiful and substantial piece of art that they can be proud of.

Hence, Miriam has worked with many preschools, primary and secondary schools, after school and holiday care, aged care, community groups, special needs and corporate clients. She has also worked on a voluntary basis with hospitals and other not for profit organisations.

Miriam has students who love attending mosaic workshops in her classroom at botany. “Whenever I work with people the process is the same – I help each person find their own unique creative style, then help them express that creativity through mosaic art. When I work with schools and large groups we work together to create a unique mosaic that reflects their emotions and values”.

All CW mosaics include students’ artworks and ideas. “This ensures students have ownership and pride in their beautiful mosaic and feel connected to it."

We had a a great lesson, just the right of information and got into the task as soon as possible. Plenty of materials and teacher supportive of colour ways and design ideas and added new tiles to meet our desired colour palettes.

A lovely outing and will be coming back for more!

This was a great starter class to give you the basics on what you need to know.

Teacher was friendly and very helpful . All materials are provided. And parking is easy.

It is trickier than I had imagined and most people struggled for time. Don’t get too bogged down in making it perfect. Just have a go!

Miriam is a fantastic teacher. She is patient and does not rush your artistic expression. She is very skilled and enjoys sharing information about techniques, supplies and all kinds of project. I love that she has a Thursday class to go and do your own projects with the support of Miriam and her guidance. Definitely do that!

Miriam was a patient and experienced teacher who catered to students aged 5 to 50 plus in the same class. Our family made multiple pieces in the allocated time and had a wonderful afternoon in the studio. We will be back!

Miriam is an excellent teacher sharing her knowledge of mosaics with the group. It was a fun and relaxing afternoon I would highly recommend this class if you want a taste of mosaics we each left with our chosen piece that we worked on. A great date afternoon with my partner

Miriam embodies creative flair and wisdom, guiding us today to make our treasured first piece of mosaic and inspiring us to continue the creative energy with her other offeringssculpture, cake decorating.

Miriam is fantastic. She is very patient and explains the steps very clearly. It has been a great experience for my 8yo and myself as we have not done any mosaics class before. We look forward to join future class or have a birthday party at Creativity Wild Mosaics.

Kim Barry • Aug 2022

What a fun session! Miriam is a wonderful teacher. In our morning session we learnt the basics we needed about materials, tools, procedures and techniques and achieved a small project. Just the right amount of “hands on” guidance. I highly recommend for a small group of friends with little or no experience.

Sandra Kilborn • Aug 2022

The class was terrific as a beginners class. The time just flew by. Miriam was fully prepared with everything that we needed and assisted us in learning the basics. I hope to do more classes.

Karen Lee • May 2022

What a wonderful time we had at our Mosaic beginner's class.
Teacher Miriam was so friendly and put us all at ease and took us step by step through the process. She showed us what potential mosaics at an advanced level but also showed us what a basic mosaic project can look like. She advised on design ideas, details, things that worked well and things that won't work well, demonstrating her experience and wonderful professionalism. She even gave us a bit of extra time so we could finish our little projects and not feel rushed.

Loved the whole experience from the start. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a team building or individual experience.

Jacqueline Sudul • May 2022

Was a fun class. The class teaches you how you could do this at home. It was a gift for my friend. I found it a great starter course and great for a one-off craft workshop. would do again.

Miriam was a great teacher. I came to the class knowing nothing about mosaics. She explained all the steps very clearly and answered all my questions. She supplied everything I needed. Would recommend the beginners mosaics class with Miriam
