Question about materials for tile work..
Hi, I’ve wandered over from the food discussion.
My question is this. I’ve been doing paintings with tiles, ceramic tiles, cut and fitted mosaic style, and I’m wondering what adhesive to use if they end up being mounted on plywood? I’m assuming the adhesive needs to be more flexible than when tiles are wall mounted. And is plywood the right choice for backing for such projects. I’m working in relatively small sizes, max dimension is about 24″.
Thanks in advance for any technical help

You might want to check out http://www.thejoyofshards.co.uk -- the site has some good information on mosaics materials. Or maybe post your question on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mosaicartistsorg/ -- it's a community of mosaic artists. I'm sure someone there would have an answer for you!
Good luck!
Thanks for the links. I'll check them out.
