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 🙂

@Bow I know you are going through so much at the moment. I also know how much you are hurting. I wish I could help with that hurt. Wrap my arms around you and let you know I'm here for you.

Even if I'm not on here, I'm still by your side.

We are here for you, through all the times where it seems impossible to continue.

All my love 💗💗

Re: My Mosaic

I’m on edge now more than any other day

My world doesn’t feel safe

From danger around and within

I can feel my heart pounding in my chest

My breath gets taken away

The adrenaline pumping through my body

Always on guard ready for flight fight freeze

All those sensations don’t feel nice

It’s exhausting you know yeah

Feel like I’m constantly on the verge of a panic attack.

I didn’t chose this

My no meant nothing that night

And now I deal with the consequences alone

Hiya @Bow @Eve7 @Snowie 👋

Sorry to hear about your brother @Bow that is so rough 😞 Especially on top of everything you're dealing with.

Decision fatigue is totally a thing, and it doesn't surprise me that it feels impossible right now, survival-mode has a tendency to slow/shut down those capabilities like decisions, logic, creative-problem-solving etc. - so pls, if you are able to give yourself a little bit of grace and not blame yourself too hard for not being able to make your mind up - especially about big decisions like hospital!

The table looks absolutely incredible!! I've said it before and I'll say it again, you have a wonderful eye for colour and composition!! I'm with you @Snowie I'd buy that table in a heartbeat! And it even matches the bed spread!!

What sort of art did you end up doing this arvo?

How you travelling atm @Snowie and @Eve7?

Re: My Mosaic

I just saw your pic you've been working on! It's awesome!

My sister was clearning out the other day and she threw out frames where the glass was broken. It pained me to see it because I was thinking "Bow could use all of these". I even questioned my sister to see if she would give them away on some online free place... but she couldn't be bothered. @Bow

Are you going to sell it?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

No you’re right, leaving wouldn’t help @tyme just don’t wanna say the wrong thing. It’s really hard

it’s actually an order. A repeat customer asked for it, thankfully she wasn’t in a hurry for it.

ah yeah, frames. I throw so much glass out. And taking the glass out is time consuming. I often buy in bulk, so 50 frames worth of glass is heavy and sharp!
