mhs represent!
How do I even pick photos to post here? I would like to post about thirty. There's just NO WAY for you to see everything in this mosaic. I mean, I was present for the entire fabrication and I was still discovering new details the last day. Ahead of time, it was decided that we would work with mostly school colors and let each kid make their own glass tile. We took these tiles, about 100, and mixed them up with regular stained glass to complete the design.
In the bottom photo is the youngest class (seventh graders) that worked on the mosaic. Every class produced stellar tiles... not even kidding! There was a ballerina and a flamenco dancer; a bike and a snowman; superman and batman logos. There were soccer balls, basketballs, baseballs, footballs and pom poms. There was a donut and a circuit board. Phillies, Broncos and a top hat... a turtle, a horse, birds, and SO many flowers.
Again, I will thank the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts for their generous donation covering a huge chunk of the money that made this Muncy program possible. I am so unbelievably grateful to have been part of this. So tired... so happy. Looking forward to being in my shop tomorrow, aaahhhhhhh.
