Sea Shell

Oil Painting 70/80 cm . I love painting enlarged items. My series of Sea Shells were snatched up and sold fast. Being a beach lover, I am at the beach regularly. Usually on a Saturday's for breakfast, summer and winter. I find that just sitting there energizes me for the whole week. In summer I go more often, at the end of the day to see the sunset and "breath" relax with a shandy. I don't need much after that, Its as if my day is then done and all is good in the Universe.
You hear of people going all over the world to wonderful beaches, to relax and have a holiday, while I sit and look out at the ocean and think , this is a blessing and its A 5 minute walk down my road.
Shells have been a major pastime, and looking for them on the beach never tiers me. I don't bring them home any more, as I have a big collection and a bucket of a collection that belongs to my daughter. I've tried to be more creative gluing actual shells in my art but they never turned out quiet as I liked, until I just started painting enlarged shells that took them totally
out of proportion.
