The Beach Speaks
Searching for Seashells: An Artist’s Guide to Treasures on the Beach with Jessie King Regunberg
Today’s episode is a conversation I had recently with Jessie King Regunberg, author of the book SEARCHING FOR SEASHELLS: An Artist’s Guide to Treasures on the Beach
It’s all about the enchanting world of seashells and how they have touched our lives and sparked our curiosity.
Jessie’s book is a testament to her passion for shells, art, and history. It’s filled with 200 hand-painted illustrations, intriguing facts, and interesting stories about shells you might already have in your collection (I know you have one!) and shells you dream of finding—perhaps along a magical moonlit shore or on a sparkly beach at sunrise.
Now, as you’re admiring all your beautiful shells - ask yourself, what one speaks to your soul? If it could talk, what stories would it tell?
The beach says, “Like seashells, you are beautiful and unique. Each one has a story to tell - and I’m listening.!”
Poem by: E. E. Cummings (1983). “Hist Whist: And Other Poems for Children”, p.13, W. W. Norton & Company
