Jewels of the Sea~Part Deux

~Mimi Gregoire Carpenter~


~The beautiful work of Maine artist Mimi Gregoire Carpenter~

I have long been a fan of Mimi Gregoire Carpenter's work. To me, her work exemplifies the treasures of the Maine coastline.
From her sea urchins, sand dollars, mussel shells, small pieces of driftwood and softly tumbled sea glass- Mimi captures the Jewels of the Sea perfectly.
Mimi has also authored the book, What the Sea Left Behind. I sweet story of the treasures a little girl finds while walking the beaches.

~ Perfect examples of Sea Glass~

~Beautiful blues and that citrus green~

~A bounty of sea glass~rarely seen quite like this~



I have just been invited on a marvelous adventure! Thursday morning I leave bright and very early for the shores of Maryland...Sea-glassing. For me, this is the perfect way to spend a few days. I'm traveling with my life-long friend. Her Dad the town physician, brought me into the world and she and I have been best friends since nursery school. So our twelve hour journey is just another good excuse to chat it up. Most of the year my friend lives in Florida, but she still has a summer home here in Maine. Sea-Glassing is a passion we share. She knows of some {secret} places where the treasures abound!

I'll be back here early next week~ so please come back and see what jewels I have unearthed.
