Polar Bear mama & cubs

Handpainted acrylic on shell.  Framed in a midnight blue painted wooden open frame measuring 10cm square.  The natural markings and swirls on this shell seemed perfect for this winter scene. 
 
My Beachcombed Miniatures collection is born from my passion for painting wildlife miniatures on beachcombed shell fragments and pebbles.  My work is inspired by my love of animals, the wildlife on my doorstep and the coastline just down the road from me.  I am hugely passionate about preserving our rural spaces and use a lot of reused or reclaimed items in my work. Each work is unique and will usually be inspired by the shape, size and colour of the shell or pebble.
