Helen is my friend from Kenya. She came to me to discover France.
At this time I was working with the marble and at the mosaic "Matrone". |

Showing her great interest for the mosaics, Helen helped me and learned all the steps of creating a copy of ancient mosaics. |
|
|
But here we are not in my workshop any more and not at all in Montpellier. Mathilde B. has invited us in a castle to her exhibition
of India ink.
The visitors were very interested to observe how mosaics is created. Castle Pannonie (XVth century, France) |

And what child will be held from the temptation to help with facing of pebbles into such beautiful patterns! |
|
|
 |
|
|

|
As soon as the work with marble was finished, Helene decided to carry out her own creation on contemporary mosaics using the glass mosaics.
