Summary and reflections after the first edition of the high-polish and mirror gilding course according to my methods, which took place on March 9-10, 2024 in Krakow.
All students achieved the intended results, used my method successfully and achieved great gilding results!
At the end of the course, each participant solved the problems she encountered on her own, with the right amount of distance and self-reflection, which gave me confidence that she would be able to continue without my support.
Only conservators of works of art participated in the course: lecturers, students, long-time gilders, employees of renowned Krakow institutions.
“Your level is such that you deserve it to go much further.
I have been waiting for this level of knowledge, skills, experience and free sharing for a long time. One of the most enjoyable weekends I have ever experienced in my life.”
It was great to support and observe the students’ progress.
You can see the effects in the attached photos. The group photo was taken after the first day of work.
