Latest Shells to Color

My Latest Shells to Color

My latest Shell picture for you to color. In real life the bigger Shell I have is a dark Pink and White. Well kind of a Pinkish Brown. The other ones around it are all shades of Brown, from the little Cowrie Shell, to the Conch which is several shades of Brown, to the Cone one which is light Brown and White. If you want to color the sand in a different color to bring out the colors, I suggest you use some metallic pencils. And don't be afraid to do the background as sea glass and use brighter colors. I did a few that way and they get lots of positive feedback. 

If you need to see some shells to decide on your colors you can see them here. 

Be sure to use Aurora Art Supplies colored pencils! They are on sale for only $10!

Funny Shells: Stars and Horses

Starfishes and Seahorses

I think I have been in love with both Starfishes and Seahorses since I was about 7 and found some of both on a beach in Southern France when my parents took me on vacation there. I just couldn't believe that a fish was shaped like a star! Or a horse with a bony body that looked like a dinosaur! To a 7 year old that was just mind blowing. These specimens came from South Texas, not France, as I didn't collect Shells in those days; that started later when I was in my early adulthood. Since that time I always get a Shell from every beach I visit. Enjoy coloring my little collection of Shells!
