Sea Shells

Some drawings from a month long project looking at the methods of collection. 

Every day for ten days I went to Broughty Ferry beach and collected the items that landed in a 1m x 1m square of sand.  These items were then measured, filed and logged in a database.  At the end of the collection period, the results were analysed to reveal that mussels were the most common item collected, with over 60%.  From this I produced a series of drawings exploring the patterns and coloured present in these mussels.
