Collecting Shells

Barbara Sammons

Several individual images were painted with opaque watercolors.
Each image was scanned and colorized to many different tones. The background of
each image was removed and design saved as a transparent image. The overall
design was created by digitally moving images to a new layout. The new design
measures 12×16 inches and printed on cold press watercolor paper for a matte
finish. Eace piece is matted and framed to a 16×20 inch frame.

Everything has a story. People have a story, objects have a
story, and, of course, words have a story. When I put brush to paper, I want to
tell a story. I want to capture your interest and hope you stay and wander
around and maybe find your own story. Watercolor is a medium that allows me to
be free with my ideas, whether it be botanical or abstract. I am a self-taught
artist who entered the world of photography and writing in my early teens and
then gradually added painting in my retirement years. Originally from Los
Angeles, California, I now reside in the small, coastal town of Southport,
North Carolina. The beaches have a story, the shells have a story, and the sea
always has a story.
