During the Renaissance, Italian painters were inspired by Roman
Frescoes and Mosaics created 13 centuries before them. In our 21st
century, fashion designers are still inspired by the work of artists who
created 15 centuries before us.
I am a modern mosaic artist who greatly admire Roman and Byzantine Art. My mosaics are often inspired
by the works of ancient masters. You can visit my site at mosaicblues If you are interested by my work, please contact me by email at frederic.lecut@gmail.com or by phone at (334) 798 1639.
