Fish And Shells

I love watching the sea...the rhythm of the waves, the cool breeze, the feel of the tiny grains of sand and the shades of blue...it's just amazing! All the same I kind of dread the sea at night...I feel that there's lot more hidden in the deep dark sea than it is perceived the naked eyes. Just my feeling!

I think most of us would pick shells when strolling in the beach. I do...I look for ones with different shapes and hues. The music of the shells is something that amuses and captivates perhaps everyone. It reminds us of the omnipotent and omnipresent God which surely says that I do mesmerise this world with so much more than can be fathomed by the common mind....It reminds us of the music that the nature holds within itself! Again, just my thought :)

Here's something I feel about the music, magic and abundant joy that resides in nature... So what do you feel about it??? Do let me know...

Deepa, this is a beautiful watercolor!! i love your fish and shells... love the golden color contrasting with the blue background. I totally understand your words about the ocean - i love it too (i visit it every day!) and i have been swimming in the ocean at night and feel that same sense of dread or anxiety as you. :-) I have a friend who always jokes about "monsters lurking in the dark, deep waters"... so i rarely swim at night now. :-)
Your fish are really beautiful Deepa. Thanks for sharing! xoxo
