Gathered by the Sea

About this piece

Shells from two beloved coastlines, arranged on a hand-painted striped canvas and mounted in a handmade natural wood frame. The oyster shells were legally collected in Falmouth, Massachusetts by my dad and his lifelong best friend during their time on the water together. The remaining shells, sand dollars, and starfish were gathered along the shores of Juno Beach, Florida.

Some of the best things are gathered slowly, one shoreline at a time. Every part of this piece is handmade, from the painted canvas to the frame.

Details:

• Genuine shells collected in Falmouth, Massachusetts, and Juno Beach, Florida

• Oyster shells legally collected by my father and his lifelong best friend

• Hand-painted canvas with classic coastal stripe detailing

Because the shells are natural, no two collections will ever be exactly alike.
