We picked up a large shell on the beach, and took it to our appartment. For the rest of the holiday, the shell was used as a telephone for people to mimic eleborate conversations.
One oyster shell that I found while wondering around on our property. We have lived here 18 years and I never know what I might find while out walking along the berm. I'm reading a book about expressive drawing...that is what inspired me to draw the same shell in different positions. I used Neocolor 2.
A recent family half term holiday in Whitby, birthplace to none other than Count Dracula and host for the annual Goth weekend, would perhaps seem an unlikely inspiration to paint a shell in the sand with some stones!
With all the tradition mixed with fancy dress that goes on in this bustling seaside town at this time of year it's definitely the place to be...although good luck finding a spot in a restaurant!
Anyway, back to the stones! So, having started painting again in September for the first time in 30 years, this holiday my camera and I had a slightly different agenda to normal.
Gone were the endless family point and clicks and in were the walks along the beach, camera facing downwards at stones, rock pools, shells and the like!
The obvious downside to that?...In 10 years time we won't be able to use my holiday snaps to help us remember the fun we had in our Whitby week!

The Shell Grotto is an ornate subterranean passageway in Margate, Kent. Almost all the surface area of the walls and roof is covered in mosaics created entirely of seashells, totalling about 2,000 square feet (190 m2) of mosaic, or 4.6 million shells. It was discovered in 1835 but its age remains unknown. The grotto is a Grade I listed building and is open to the public.
Several Decades ago, Shell put out a number of series of cards. They also sold albums to put these cards in. Everytime you went to Shell for petrol, or anything else, they gave you some cards. The idea was to collect the whole lot, and generally they were most obliging in allowing you to go through the box, to get the cards you were missing.
Some of my shell collection, arranged roughly by type and size on my rug. Reminds me a bit of Ernst Haeckel for some reason.
some of these are straight from the beach in mexico. we bought the starfish in hawaii. cordy has a fondness for it - we often find it randomly throughout the house!
Another shell from my small collection, again whilst waiting for spring to arrive so that I could go out and learn how to use my first digital camera.
아직 금속 화폐가 등장하기 전 화폐로 쓰이던 조개. 산서 상인으로 유명한 산서 성답게 산서 박물관에는 산서 상인들이 팔던 도자기와 쓰던 화폐를 전시하는 전시실이 따로 있었다. 조개 화폐도 처음 보는 건 아니지만, 이렇게 출토된 진흙덩어리 전체를 전시한다는 게 참(...)

one in a photo study of some of the more interesting shells I've found over the years -- from beaches on the outer Cape or Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, or Cape May, New Jersey.
