Sea Life with Dramatic Tones!

"Sea Life", 24" x 24", Oil on canvas
I am lucky to be able to drive to the ocean and be inspired by expected things I find.  I travel to and from the beach throughout the year and find the best shell collecting is during the winter and spring seasons.  Building my collection, I have found a huge spectrum of shell varieties in all colors and sizes. 

My shell collection inspired me to create this painting in rich tones and subtle colors.  I let the drama of the sea life be the center of attention!
