C130 - stained glass mosaic - finished.

Finished piecing, laying down

 Hallo,
    It has been awhile but I have finally finished off this stained glass mosaic of a C130 in Coast Guard colors.
  The first picture today is before resin when I finished piecing it all. About 66 total hours of work into this piece!!!
  The second picture is after resin and standing up with the light shining through it. I love how it turned out!!!!
  The last 2 pics are closeups - I used a bit of translucent blue resin dye for the 'water' on the 'beach' and a small amount of white to make a few white caps in the water. I went lite on both because I hadn't worked with those before.....
   Not too much new here - still working and not doing too much else, yard work and playing in the studio. The return to normal has begun and hopefully will continue without a covid resurgence ....
We went out to eat for lunch on Mothers Day for the first time in forever - was nice to be 'out'!!!
   All for today - Take Care Everyone!!!

Finished with resin -  upright with light behind it.

C130 Mosaic

Hallo,
   WELL has this been a crazy month or what!!!!!
   As all this Covid stuff was starting the hubby and I were loading up a POD for a 3 week house renovation, so it has been more than crazy at my house. I am a Nurse so of course am still working - in a small area of NW Florida and not too bad here yet. I work at the military hospital so we are prepared as much as we can be and all I can do is watch and wait. I have family in Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, Colorado, California and here in Florida - and friends all over the states and the world. Family is all good and staying safe and have been in touch with many ,many friends and so far so good.
   Fortunately my studio isnt at my house and I can get out of the way of the construction crew without risking myself or others. My friend who owns the gallery where my studio is, closed up shop until this gets better. I can go work anytime and have been working on this mosaic.
   Our local Arts and Design Society has a show coming up this summer with the theme 'C130' - it is a big anniversary for this military plane and so I decided to try out my newest hobby/addiction and do a big piece with an airplane in it. The bottom 'beach' portion is made of seashell pieces and the rest will be stained glass. It is about 16 by 20 inch size and so far I have about 37 hours of work into it with the above picture.
   Adding a bunch of pics of my progress along the way up to the point where I left off this morning before work(above picture) - there will be another post down the road as I get it finished.
   All for today - Take Care - Stay home if you dont need to go out and keep Prayers going for all those sick, all those helping to take care of those sick and all those helping to keep this country running!!!!
   God Bless!!!!
      Tera
