Sea Urchin
Wandering along a beach there are unlimited natural treasures to be found washed up on the sand. Each object is unique and facinating. Equally facinating is the channels of water from changing tides that travel around these discarded new obstacles. 'Beachcombing' is a collection of mixed media illustrations focused on the natural interactions between unmoving natural objects and the constant flow of water and corrosion of sand around them.
This detailed study of a sea urchin on a sandy beach at low tide is a part of the beachcombing collection. Greate care and time has been taked on creating this illustration and capturing each detail accurately. This work is heavily influenced by the artists inerest in natural history illustration yet still has a focus on the patterns of waves on the shore. The work has a neutral colour palette reflective of the colours found in the environment depicted.
