Description
Single Panel version of a Multi Panel painting
I do a lot of three and even four panel painting prints because I like the modern look and it is quite an attractive means to decorate a wall. But not
everyone has the wall space for such a long decorative display, and some would prefer the more traditional rectangular painting format. So I have redone most of my multi-panel pieces as single panel rectangle works. Check out other pages of my site to see if I have posted a multi panel version of this painting/print.
I have never seen a conch shell at the beach, but we do have them off shore in Hawaii. The ancient Hawaiians used them for trumpets. This painting depicts a number of Hawaiian shells including the cowry, and cone shells, and some of the real Hawaiian puka shells which are the left overs of broken cone shells where only the heavy coiled base of the shell is left after all the cone part has broken off after tumbling in the surf for days on end.
