Ocean Memory


8" x 6" oil on linen panel - SOLD

I once thought I might write and illustrate a children's book about things whose insides are "bigger" than their outsides. The first verse described the seashell that
" . . . remembers the waves and the foam
and the sound of the ocean that once that once was its home."

    A beautiful painting and a "mind bending" concept! I think you could devote a whole series to it, and I like the idea of a children's book. It's so instructive to challeng us to see the world from a completely different perspective. I hope you create more of these.
