Here are two mosaic pieces that I just finished. They are not my favorites, but they do look much better in person, than in my not so clear pictures.
it is good to be getting back to the studio after almost 2 months away.
I started making the pizza when I was dating B. I thought it would be fun to have a reminder of a date that didn’t go so well. This date: https://atomic-temporary-33385295.wpcomstaging.com/2022/03/15/the-pizza-date-i-mean-debacle/
It turns out, as you may know, that the entire short relationship didn’t turn out well. I don’t want any reminders of that, but still I don’t like to leave things unfinished, so I finished it.
Below is a frame that was born out of a broken ceramic container that had play cards on it. I had just returned from the casino, so it seemed fitting.
“The beauty of being shattered is how the shards become our character and our marks of distinction. This is how we are refined by our pain. When the storm rips you to pieces, you get to decide how to put yourself back together again. The storm gives us the gift of our defining choices. You will be a different person after the storm, because the storm will heal you from your perfection. People who stay perfect and unblemished never really get to live fully or deeply. You will not be the same after the storms of life; you will be stronger, wiser and more alive than ever before!” ― Simple Reminders: Inspiration for Living Your Best Life

What a creative way to process your experience with B.
Thank you Brad!
After the experience I felt like breaking this pizza on his head. Well, I am not a violent person, but he did deserve a pie on the face.
Blessings!

Love the pizza! I’m Italian – now we need a cappuccino with a croissant or biscotti! LOL
Thank you Monica!
A cappuccino should be fun to make. I will put that on my list.
Blessings to you!
Let’s make it challenging… a lady drinking the cappuccino… 🙂
oh you, always challenging me!! We shall see what I do with that.
Thank you for the great ideas!!!
Think of a trip to Italy… you will be inspired.
They look great!.
Thank you Ute!

Thank you Larry!
There will be always more and more – I just adore mosaics!
Blessings to you!
Beautiful…very creative!!!
Thank you so much Indira!

It fascinates me how you extract something positive out of an experience deemed a throw-away (and the comment above about breaking the pizza over his head is LOL). My brain is too logical to take on a mosaic, let alone think to create a pizza, so I’ll just sit back and admire your “different strokes”.
Thank you Dave! I am assuming it was a compliment lol
I always thought of myself as the world’s most uncreative and artistic challenged person. Mosaics is allowing the dormant creativity to flow and grow.
Blessings!
oh I love it Ana Star.. I think you should send it to be in a pizza box and of course in a few pizza pieces.. you know a memory of such.. 😂😂💖😂
Thank you Cindy!
That’s an idea!! lol
Blessings!
😂😘
I really like that pizza one, especially because I know the context 😉 Art is such a healthy way to express ourselves <3
Hi KE,

Blessings!
