Sea Charmings by Sharon Black

 Between writing projects, I began creating with seashells.

I was influenced by a shell kangaroo that I had bought as a child in the Hastings Museum in Hastings, Nebraska. It was made in Japan, but I really like it, and I wanted to make something like it. 

So, one day I just began creating. I took art in high school and in college, so I had a little experience. Never knowing how it was going to look after, I was pretty happy with the results.

Little girls like the mermaid tails, and the wood letters are popular.
