Coastal Soul

Jaime Kelley

Saturday, November 30th

Seaglass framed art and christmas ornaments, handpainted real horseshoe crab shells coated in epoxy resin to preserve, and resin art with delaware beach sand incorporated into each piece.

My work incorporates natural elements found along the coast of delaware. From a young age I have been drawn to nature and find peace at the beach. I collect what other might identify as "trash" and repurpose them into coastal art. Every piece of art has some type of element collected from delaware beaches. I handcraft every piece using either seaglass, shells, driftwood, sand and horseshoe crabs shells. My goal is to recreate the beauty and peace i find at the beach and share it with others.
