She Sells Seashells

Hi Everyone,
"She Sells Seashells" watercolor on paper 6x6  BUY NOW

When we were in Florida on vacation last month it was scallop season.  There were scallop shells everywhere.  As we were driving into our campsite we stopped at the bay and I took the most fabulous photo of scallop shells with a layer of glittery, golden water floating on top.  I have painted a 6x6 and a 4x6 version of this.  I may at some point do a larger painting.  The colors are just beautiful, lots of golds, oranges, turquoises and blues in addition to the muted neutrals.  Just gorgeous!

    Beautiful colors with such harmony. Can tell you had a blast with this- fun to see the slightly different formats and what that does. Both are gorgeous.

    Un travail prodigieux dans lequel vous avez comme d'habitude excellé. bravo!
    Il est vrai que ces coquillages ont cette particularité d'avoir une variété de couleurs magnifiques... avec des tons irisés.
    Gros bisous

    I just added you to my blog roll so that I will not miss these great posts. Your work is amazing and I loved your Friday interviews. How do you find the time?? Congrats on the recent honors in the various contests. No surprise, your work is crazy good.
    You asked me a while back if that was me in Stonehenge gallery...yep. Kind of forgot about it. Sold a couple for me.
