"A Mother's Worst Nightmare"
On Sept. 11, 2009 a knock came at my door, One of my 14 year old's friends said that Sam was hit by a car. I haven't been able to go down the street since, but this was my Dark and Stormy night. I jumped out of my neighbors car as it was still moving, first thing I saw was Sammy's black sneakers, neatly aligned next to the curb, then I saw him lying in a pool of blood. I never saw the car, only the color of it, that is the Okre colored square with the broken windshield. I never saw Sam's bike that too was a blur to the left with a sea of onlookers and First responders. The Sky is dark purple to the right with gold and silver foil under neath to give it an eerie feel. To the right is blue, it wasn't quite night but the glass on top of the glass is A Mother's tears. This is "It was a dark and stormy night"my submission to the Piecemakers Challenge

Inspiration / Story behind this Product:
My husband is always bringing home treasures for me to mosaic. This silver dish was one of them. I found the rose plate and was able to mosaic the inside right away. It took a little time to figure out what to do with the rim. I found the frosted gems in my art supplies and loved the look.
