The Shells

Vereen Gardens in Little River, SC January 2023

It all begins with the shells.

Collecting shells is fun for me.

Whenever I’m at the beach - sunrise to sunset and anytime in-between - I am looking for shells and other beach finds.

Some days I find an abundant supply of shells, and other days, nothing.

Whatever the case, it’s a process that involves collecting them, cleaning them, storing and organizing them (it’s a long process!), and being inspired by them.
