This particular peace sign reminds me of my teenage self sitting in the very modern living room belonging to my Grandfather. It's possible they had this pattern in dishes; they were just that cool. I thought he and his wife were so contemporary; not your typical grandparent experience.
This retro peace sign was created using hand cut vintage dish tiles and manufactured machine cut ceramic half circles. A great representation of the period styles in Mid Century Modern designs within a hippie vibe.
A ceramic boomerang shape in the center is the focal point and that's where it started. I filled this with as much as I could. Many hand cut small pieces of vintage dishes surround this 12 inch peace sign. Grouted in grey, giving it a slight loft-living feeling, I painted the back in a hand mixed color in brown and grey taking slightly muted colors to show off the beauty of these vintage dish pieces.
