This mosaic is primarily made with 3/4" vitreous glass tiles. The cat and the bee bodies are stained glass.

This piece commemorates MacKenzie, a cat who came into our lives when we did some volunteer work at the local animal shelter.

He was only a part of our lives for a short time. Mack liked to sneak outside at every opportunity. We live on one of the busier streets in Winona and Mack met his demise one Memorial Day weekend when he escaped late at night.

He was a very personable cat. One of his favorite things was to go out into the apiary and hang out with with Wes while he worked and studied the bees. Mack never tried to play with or eat the bees (unlike Poppycat). He was content to lay in the flowers, listening to the hum of the bees as they flew around him, watching Wes at work.
