Greeting Card - Coastal Connection

I was asked to create a piece that would reflect a couple’s special connection to the coast, where they often go to collect shells. I have captured the sea and its waves, the sand dunes using pat- terns to portray movement with the dots representing the grains of sand. Running through the middle are their footsteps left in the sand as they walk along and collect the shells they are drawn to and take home to add to their collection. Under that is their journey line with the patterns representing the good energy and therapeutic effect it has on them and their family.
