Here are a few photos from the Sanibel Shell Fair this year. It was great seeing old friends and meeting new friends. Rachel, in the first photo, had been on a trip with me over eight years ago. She recently took a class on making sailor valentines with the talented Sandy Moran. This year she entered a beautiful piece of work as you can see. Great job Rachel and congrats on a ribbon!
I enjoyed meeting the lovely Karen Robertson. Her work is amazing. I look forward to talking with her again and seeing more of her beautiful creations.
I always find it rewarding to mingle with fellow shellers and artistic creators of the sea
at the Sanibel Shell Fair.
No entry this year Brian?
The sailors valentine with the dolphins was my favorite! Loved that huge tulip as well.
Wow, Brian, thank you for all of these photos! Amazing!!
Kim, I did not enter anything this year but I look forward to next year and doing something different than I did last time for the show.
