Description
I actually found these slices in a little gift shop in a little coastal town. You know the one’s. The one’s you could spend hours in. These slices or skeletons make the perfect sea shell artwork.
I have enlarged the sea shell’s skeleton to focus on their wonderful interior curved lines, colours and textures. I love how these show off the magical interior workings of the shells. The ocean and horizon is dramatically distant creating the illusion that the shells are giants on the beach. The chambers within the shell now create windows to beach and waves beyond. I have one of these conical shells in it’s whole form so I have been fascinated by this slice showing what’s inside. The magic of nature revealed.
This series of drawings, ‘See Shells’ is both a play on words and perspectives. The soft earthy tones would be perfect against green foliage and indoor plants for that tropical vibe.
This artwork is the 6th in the series of 6 drawings. Each is framed in Australian timber.
