Day 3 – Clouds on the Mountain

Another day of clouds but I added a mountain.  I’m finding that I like using chunks of glass and shaping them. It’s less tedious then glueing down a million little squares and  I like the way it looks.  I used this great textured glass that gives the mountains some dimension.

I’m starting to get into a routine already.  Late in the day I start thinking about the design for the day and do some drawings.  I go right to work as soon as I get home.  Even if I’m tired before I start working I feel energized as I work on the mosaic.  It’s a great way to forget about everything for a while.  I love seeing the end result and writing about it.  I’m feeling comfortable with the decision to create a mosaic 6 days a week.  I’m excited to grout on Sunday and see how the completed mosaics look.
