Connected as Beth Powanda Shady (577 friends)
I am a nature artist and ocean lover living in Santa Cruz, CA. My favorite medium is seaweed, which I press onto paper to create unique, abstract collages.
I first fell in love with the ocean as a child spending my summers in Cape May, NJ. As an adult, I was lucky to move to the world famous surf town of Santa Cruz, CA. Here in this temperate climate I gardened year round and took up the hobby of pressing flowers. When I discovered you could do the same thing with seaweed I was hooked.
I believe that nature and art meet when the variety of seaweed’s colors, shapes and textures naturally lend themselves to artistic expression. SeaweedArt is a gift from the sea. I hope that by sharing my love of the sea with others, they too will experience my passion for the sea.
