Inspired by the beauty of an Italian coastal meal, this piece captures the color, movement, and abundance of a seafood tablescape. Hand painted blue watercolor elements including lobster, crab, oysters, mussels, and shells are individually created, cut, and layered to bring the scene beyond the canvas.

The vibrant red printmaking background was inspired by traditional Italian textiles and ceramics, creating a bold contrast against the delicate blue watercolor details. Each element is thoughtfully arranged to create depth and dimension, with pieces extending beyond the frame and scattered throughout the border to make the composition feel alive.

This artwork combines watercolor, printmaking, and mixed media techniques to celebrate the joy of gathering around a table, the beauty of handmade details, and the memories created through shared meals.

Original mixed media artwork currently available.

The piece is 17×20×2.5 inches
