I think those broken shells and washed up treasures on the beach are each a metaphor with a message for us, but they are also a testament to the enduring quality of each and every being and how nothing exists in isolation, but is part of an interdependent cycle. What the shell once was, what it is now, and what it will become... it always holds its special place in the universe forever. That's pretty cool when you think about it! Those kind of subjects make great drawings and paintings too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05600673251180423439noreply@blogger.com
