I Find Surf-Tumbled Pottery Shards On The Beach And Make Them Into Unique Pieces Of Artwork

Since moving to Edinburgh I’ve fallen in love with sea pottery and sea glass. It’s everywhere along the Firth of Forth. Each find is so interesting and I can spend hours researching where/what each piece is. They are little fragments of history! I especially love marked written pieces so I can date them. The oldest I’ve found is an 1880 bone China piece.

I’ve always wanted to do something creative with my finds, give them a new lease of life and ultimately recycle! I eventually got back into an old hobby of mine: watercolour painting. Combining the two hobbies was so easy! And so with a few licks of paints I made my finds “Fansea”. I hope you love them as much as I do!
