October Full Moon #6

My inspiration for Oct was the Beach - again - have I mentioned I love the beach? This project was an easy one because it was for myself. I decided to take my Beach Mosaic a little farther and add footprints in the sand. I went to my studio and found my boxes of small beach stones. I have lots and lots of beach stones, but nothing small enough to make footprints that would fit the space! I started playing around with the stones at random and I there was that little turtle again!  So Happily I added her to my space and she is swimming towards the beach.  What is next you ask? Road trip! To the Beach for more smaller beach stones and a few agates too. Any excuse to go to the beach.

JUNE FULL MOON #3

June, the month when summer arrives and thoughts turn to the beach. Well for me the beach is always in my thoughts, it's my happy place! The Super Moon brought with it low tides which makes for wonderful beach walks and treasure hunting.

This month I created an altar piece for Kathy. From my beach to hers, "Gnoming Coastal" came about. Using polymer clay, perfect pearls luster dust and a wee gnome whispering in my ear a gnome sand castle came to life. Calvin, the Camano Crab does a fine job as sentry.

So the next time you're at the beach listen closely you may hear the giggling of sand gnomes and perhaps come upon one of their sand castles. They will gladly accept gifts of small shells with much delight!

Happy Summer!
