Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Just making stock for market and some end of year teacher gifts. Don’t really know why though. Just wanna give up. Fighting it so much at the moment.

Re: My Mosaic

hey @Bow just saw your completed painting - love it!!! i'm debating between buying that or some clay... which one do you reckon requires the least prep/clean up time?

aw that's so lovely that you're making end of year teacher gifts! what sort of stuff are you making for them?

I’d go with painting @rav3n

Got 3 teacher gifts that I’m going to take orders for at markets. Will show you once I’ve made up some.

I don’t really know what to say. Don’t really have words for what I am feeling. I’m so depressed. It feels horrible. Scary. Dark and so bloody overwhelming. I sat and stared for ages today. Thinking about it. Do I

Re: My Mosaic

Painting it is! ✔️

Yesssss can't wait to see what you've made!!

I hear how overwhelming and scary this must be for you, and totally okay to not have the right words for what your feeling. what you’re experiencing is valid, and it’s important to give yourself permission to feel these things without judgment. these thoughts and feelings are not facts, they don't reflect any truth - they're just passing through and have no power over your worth. you matter me and our community so much @Bow, we don't want you to go through this alone.

are you safe at the moment?
