Gifts from the Sea

This is a small ceramic dish I keep on my desk at work. It is full of wonderful things from the beach here in Cambria. many I've found on my walks, and friends and co-workers have brought the others in for me. Shells, polished stones, bottle caps, pull tabs, bits of wire and old pottery, driftwood, even a rusted spark plug. It's the perfect pile of mixed media inspiration to keep me going during the work day until I can get back to the studio in the evenings!
