Sea Glass II - Acrylic on 20" x 16" x 1.5" gallery wrap canvas - $350

This is the second in my sea glass abstract series.

I have a whole bowl of sea glass in my home in these colors.

My earliest memory of color goes back to the age of three when I first

laid eyes on colorful depression glass.

So I've always had a fascination with all types of colorful glass.

Have you collected any sea glass?

This is the third in my sea glass series and I love the texture and colors in it!

I wanted a bit of tension in this so I added the complement of blue--orange--to the

cool colors of the blues and greens I think of when I think of sea glass.

I looked up which sea glass colors are the rarest or toughest to find,

and orange is on that list.

This series has inspired me to go through my collection of sea glass

and make a pair of earrings and maybe a bracelet!

Have you made any sea glass jewelry for yourself?

One of my very favorite things is sea glass!  I Googled how sea glass is formed, and this is what I found:

1. "Sea glass is originally made by man (bottles and jars) but refined by nature to become smooth frosty beach found gems. Sea glass begins as bottles & glass that get tossed on the shore, broken, and then tumbled smooth by the waves and currents."
   
   So something made by one person to be something useful, then tossed away by another person as something useless, becomes something to be found by yet another person and kept as a treasure.  The circle of life in a piece of glass ;-)
