Day 4 – I honor the full moon

The moon guided me home tonight so I thought it would be appropriate to honor and thank it by creating a portrait of the full moon.  I didn’t have any glass or ceramic pieces that would work to create the moon so I decided to paint the moon and then use a clear glass  circle on top. 

I thought I would be able to create this simple design very quickly but it ended up taking me much longer than expected.  I had to let the paint dry for about a 1/2 hour then adding the sky was much more difficult than I thought it would be.  Maybe because of the circle or maybe I’m just tired.  I also added some mirror stars at the end.  It’s hard to see them in the picture but they should stand out more once the piece it grouted.  I hope the moon likes its portrait
