Where Every Mussel Artwork BeginsNot every artwork starts with a paintbrush.Before I can create my blue mussel artworks, every shell is carefully cleaned by hand. It's a slow and mindful process, but it's also where the journey begins.Each shell has its own shape, texture and story, shaped by the sea before becoming part of a new piece of art.This is a little behind the scenes from my studio – where nature meets creativity.Which part of the creative process would you like to see next?
