Going for gold – 10 things you should know about gold smalts
Citrone, Limone, Ambra and Gaggia. No, these are no Italian ice-cream flavors, but only some of the nuances you can use when working with gold smalti.
Hello, ich bin Miriam, Inhaberin von mused mosaik und die Stimme hinter diesem Blog. Zum Mosaik haben mich die Mosaike von Pompeji gebracht, die mich während eines längeren Aufenthalts in Neapel schon vor vielen Jahren nachhaltig beeindruckten. Nach meinem Studium der Medien- und Kulturwissenschaften und im ersten Job angekommen suchte ich nach etwas Konkretem, (Er)Greifbarem als Ausgleich zu meinem digital fokussierten Job. Auf einige Workshops folgte 2013 meine Ausbildung in Spilimbergo. Seitdem schaffe ich Mosaike für und mit Menschen.
