Beach-Themed Mixed Media Art

Vintage surfing sign printed directly to a distressed plywood panel that has knots and other imperfections. We end up printing right over these imperfections which gives each sign the look and feel of a real vintage sign. No two are the same! Often people ask us "Are these originals?" Each designed in the style and look of a historical period using different font styles, colors, and vintage layouts.

This melancholy image shows a lonely pier, stretching into a body of still, grey water. The wooden boards stretch into the distance, capturing the perspective neatly, inviting the viewer to walk onto the water. Yet, there is something haunting about the grey tones of this image; this does not feel like a happy or even a safe place, but perhaps a metaphor for painful discovery.

Use this piece to blend a sophisticated coastal feel to any decor. Different patterned layers of paper are placed on a white matte beneath glass to create the shell. Yellow, gray, cream, blue, red, and green hues are used to make the unique conch.
