Most of us associate the beach with holidays and summer fun. And the beauty of sea shells has been appreciated for thousands of years! This art box is inspired by many artists who also love the seashore and have depicted the ocean, sun, sand and shells in their artwork. Projects vary from making cardboard flip-flops to painting surreal shells; from creating rippling wave collages to imagining multi-media sandy beach scenes: and from making your very own kinetic sand to land art!

In this art box we examine how a variety of artists look at water and the ocean - be it under the surface, at the diversity of fish, sea creatures and coral reefs, or on the surface, at the tides and the waves with their ever-flowing ripples, and how humans interact with water, be it by swimming, in boats or by helping to conserve our oceans and its wildlife for future generations.
