Sea Shells #2 and #3 by K Henderson



Sea Shells #2 and #3, 12 x 12 each, oil on cradled board


There is something intriguing about sea shells. I lovethe odd rough shape is contrasted by the smooth pink inside, don't you?

I chose a limited palette using only raw sienna, white and cadmium red.

This is my third and last (for now) painting of this intriguing sea shell

Again, I chose a limited palette using only raw sienna, white and cadmium red.

I love the slight amount of pink in this one.

This is my second painting of this intriguing sea shell

The simple background makes the detail of the shell pop out.

Sea Shell #1



Sea Shell #1, oil on cradled board, 12 x 12

This shell came into my possession recently and I just had to paint it.

I chose a limited palette using only raw sienna, white and cadmium red.

The simple background makes the detail of the shell pop out.

I've created 2 other paintings with this same shell. Stay tuned for further images.
