A panel inset for a shower. This was a project for badly needed bathroom renovation at a newly purchased house. The father wanted it to feature a Blue Jay and also sent me pictures of poppies his wife is fond of. Only the Dad lived at the new house at that time.

I decided to represent the entire family in the mosaic, anticipating when they all could be together again.
The father is feathering the nest for his young family, flying above them, preparing their house to be a home.
