I wanted to work on andamento with this piece. I love the work of Iliya Iliev and he has a wonderful shell mosaic that I used as inspiration for this piece. I collected the shells in Florida while vacationing and wanted the flawed time-worn fragments.
Olive shells are gastrpods in the family Olividae. All have cylindrical, glossy shells with narrow, elongated apetures.
Letttered olives havea thick shell with a small pointed spire about 1/9th total shell length. Shells that are not faded or beach-worn are covered with overlapping, slightly blurry, brown zigzags that are darkest below the suture and as part of two, broad, spiral bands. Oliva reticularis (the Netted Olive) has no bands and a larger spire of about 1/7th total shell length.
The species' range is from North Carolina to Florida and the Gulf states of North America, including Louisiana and Texas; It also occurs in Mexico, and may also occur in Brazil. The lettered olive typically lives in near-shore waters, on shallow sand flats near inlets. The empty shell is occasionally, or sometimes commonly, washed up onto ocean beaches.[
Lettered Olives are carnivores and actively prey on bivalves and crabs.
The lettered olive is the state shell of South Carolina.

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.
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.

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!
