I work with a girl that is recovering from severe brain injuries she received in a car accident. Her Physical therapist and I decided to make this clock with her as part of her therapy. We gathered the materials and she decided where they belonged. Then we put it together and hung it in her room. It was a lot of fun! I had received an article where an artist made similar clocks for a living, but as I tried to follow up on his Internet site I could not find him. I threw the article away so I can't even give him credit here. We had a great time creating this unique clock.
