I wish you hadn't put this up. It brings back memories and the weather is too cold for them. I use to live on St Croix USVI for about 5 years. I could go out and catch a few Conch and have them for fritters or chowder that night.
This is a winning series- great for cards, prints, etc- besides original sales. They are all so beautifully done- especially the sand background. Which i believe is the hardest to do.
"When you really take the time to look at what nature produces it is amazing." I also think it is amazing that you can paint a picture that makes us feel that we are standing there on the beach, sand between our toes, looking at these beautiful shells. A beautiful series, Deb.

Nature IS amazing. I just am so getting a kick out of the fact that I can see so much in the grains of sand. Wonderful work, Deb!
Thanks for your positive comments. I do make my own artist cards and some of the shell paintings will be printed and for sale at Gallerie 13.
Very glad to know that, Deb. :)
