She Hoards Seashells... IF

"It is perhaps a more fortunate destiny to have a taste for collecting shells, than to be born a millionaire." - Robert Louis Stevenson

Today's Illustration Friday topic is HOARD.  Which made me think of how all of us mixed media artists are known to ... collect ... many an item.  Some of us have even been accused of being hoarders. 

Here's an altered tag I created a couple years ago.  This girl collects seashells.  She wakes up thinking of them, she dreams of them.  Some might even think, she's a bit of a hoarder.

For the piece uploaded here, I used the image of the tag, and some good 'ol Microsoft clip art to finish the digitally embellished piece.

Happy Friday everyone!  May you all have plenty of seashores to explore this weekend!

I love the 'retro' look of this. Very appealing.

She hoards seashells by the seashore...how may shells did sister suzie hoard? What fun, I love to snorkel for shells. She snorkels shells by the seashore! Ok, I'll go away now! Love your tag!
