Fine Art Beach Prints

A new selection of fine art beach prints, reproductions from my original paintings, have recently been added to my shop.   The rich colors and nostalgic images should induce happy memories of summer days gone by.  If any of these prints bring back a story from your past please feel free to post it here!

 
These three vintage inspired bathing beauties are a nostalgic symbol of friendship and sisterhood.

The laid back appeal of oceanside entertaining will make you want to kick off your flip flops and jump on in!

Vintage inspired bathing beauty in tropical colors of turquoise, green, orange and pink.

 A VW Surf bus aptly captures the carefree lifestyle of surfing and memories of great road trips.

Prints measure 8 x 10 inches with a small white border and arrive ready to pop into any standard 8 x 10 inch frame or matte. They can also be made into larger sized prints upon request.  The nostalgic images are one way to make the sunny feeling and memories of summer last throughout the year!

Life's a Beach Party

BEACH THEMED CERAMIC TILE COASTERS
 We have had a few boxes of beautiful 4 x 4 inch Spanish tile, left over from our home renovation years ago, gathering dust in the attic. Since I knew we wouldn't need to save all of them I decided to recycle and re-decorate a few with whimsical beach themed designs. The designs are hand drawn and painted with non-toxic, lead-free glazes then fired in my kiln.  The coaster sets are perfect for indoor or outdoor parties, to give as gifts or for adding a pop of beachy freshness to a kitchen or bath.  Please click on the images for more information or to place an order.

Beach Party tiles include a palm tree, surfboard, sand bucket and seahorse.  They were painted with apple green, turquoise, yellow and blue glazes.
Surf bus coasters were painted with teal, apple green, pink turquoise, black and white glaze colors.
Surf Jeep coasters painted with red, teal, blue and yellow glaze colors.
I love the classic design of a Woodie! These were painted with apple green, turquoise, red, teal and brown glazes.
Vintage campers are so cute - especially in the coastal colors of turquoise, pink, blue and apple green.

Won't you join me in welcoming the warmer days and longer nights of summer - let's throw a beach party!  Feel free to add a link to your favorite beach and surf themed party items.
