Handmade large Irish Beach Cross sculpture framed in 25x20cm extra deep box frame.  Perfect for a gift or to display in your home. 

I love working with my shells and beach finds and making them into ocean collages that bring the ocean in to your home.  No 2 pieces are the same, every piece is made up of different natural elements

This piece uses mostly white shells, a pink urchin, Pearlised monita, heart cockles, nassa and mini clams with pearls  finish the piece..

How my obsession with sea shells started.....

I ferociously clean the Donegal Irish beaches to make an impact on plastic pollution and help save wildlife to protect the Irish coast I love so much.  I collect shells, driftwood, sea glass, sea pottery, crab shells/claws, fishing rope and tiny treasures and trash to use in some of my pieces while I bag up the horrendous amount of litter I find on the irish shores.  Check out some of my irish map art to see these pieces made into stunning art.

WHY?  The ocean gives me so much, I surf, paddleboard, swim and frolick in the ocean on Saturday summer evenings with my friends enjoying a flask of tea on the rocks after watching the colourful Donegal sunsets.  I walk my 4 rescue dogs on the beautiful golden sands and enjoy family time with my sons.  When I am stressed and challenged, I walk the deserted remote beaches with the ocean sounds, seaguls and wild atlantic wind blowing through my hair and I regulate and feel a total sense of calm.  The ocean really heals yet she is struggling with climate change and the endless pollution of 20th century life.  My art reflects my passion and obsession with our magnificent oceans.
