Art

The inspiration: A Quilt
The ending result: A Conch Painting
- A few weeks ago I was looking through a magazine becuase I am helping my mother design the new addition at the lakehouse. So while I was flipping through the pages, there was this picture of a room and on the bed was a tan quilt with all sorts of ocean things like a conch shell,starfish,coral,and some other types of shells and I saw the conch shell and thought of my mother because she has about 10 big glass jars in her bathroom and the study filled with sand and shells she has collected her whole life and in her bathroom she has a bunch of conch shells that she dove for in the oceans on vacations shes been on throughout her life. So I was up late one night and was staring at a blank canvas and started to paint the conch shell, im giving her the painting for her birthday next month.

It amazes me all the time that inspiration can be found from anything, a magazine, a picture, water, family, pets, books, etc.
Last thought: [everything in life is an inspiration.]
