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.
