Shell Art

This shell art was so exciting to do, I loved how the paint and pens took to the shells. I draw with very fine graphics pens .05 in size and I used watercolour paints for the face. I small fine paint brush was required to achieve the fine detail and a steady hand

I have a great love of the sea both above and below the water. As a child we played on my dad’s boat and later sailed along the coast with my son following dolphins who came to join us. I also did some scuba diving in the cold waters around the Irish shore and my longest scuba dive was from the Hook Light House to Slade harbour in Wexford.
