South Florida artist Marion K. O’Brien is renown for using colorful seashells as a medium to embellish one-of-a-kind handbags, beach totes, mirrors, boxes and numerous other artworks. Individuals throughout the United States and the Carribean have purchased her nature-inspired artworks.
Each item is created using only exquisite shells in their natural colors, with strict attention paid to pattern, color and texture. She carefully arranges the shells to create a sculpture that captures the natural beauty of the seashells and the essence of the sea.
Marion has developed a unique method of attaching each shell to ensure a strong bond that will withstand daily usage, without worry of damage or loss. For the first time, Sea Gem Art creations bring the true beauty of seashells to a higher level of fashion and sophistication.
