Beautiful OOAK mini ipen and ink, watercolor accordion painting that folds into a 4 1/2" x 4 1/4" book, that has a handmade cover closed with a raffia bow and a wire wrapped real sea shell.

Title: "Treasures From The Sea"

I used a blanket stitch to bring two sheets of handmade watercolor paper together. Then on the ends I glued handmade paper that has little bits of grass and just fell in to the theme.
This painting has several different views to display.
You can display the first two pages or the center two (the sandcastle,) the last two pages (the hermit crab,) or the first and last pages, giving deals you a view of the sanddollar and the hermit crab. Or open the entire painting to see it all.

On the back the raffia bow, real sea shell , and the lovely handmade paper is can be seen, along with the poem I wrote and hand lettered.

The sea swells with treasures from the sea.
Sand dollars, sea shells, reds, browns, greens and blues.
A crab finds a new home, while sea grass sways in the wind.
Imagination builds sand castles with feather flags.
The sea swells and so does my heart,
"with treasures from the sea."
