Beach pebbles

Beach pebbles
7 x 10 watercolour


There is something so appealing to me about beach stones. The endless colours and shapes, the smoothness of one in your hand or pocket, the sheen of the sea on a wet pebble or the matt surface of one dried by the sun.

I can't come away from the seashore without pockets of them and that that has gone a step further to turning some into jewelry, so they can come with me wherever I go.

I hope to have some of these in my Etsy shop over the next few days. I need a block of time to devote to doing this and this week may be a bit busy. But if anyone's set their heart on them, just email me and let me know and I'll help you out.

Fito, you can link to the reference image in the Virtual Sketch blog if you want.

If you want to use the image in another blog I don't have a problem with you using it, as long as you give me credit for the image.
