Earlier in the fall, the kids and I went clamming on the Navesink River.  We had a great time, dug up a nice batch of clams and made linguine and wine clam sauce later that night.  I saved a few of the clam shells and yesterday I used them to to make two still life paintings.  Here they are, along with a few pics from the day of of clamming and a link to a short clamming video I made with my friend Peder on the clamming flats.

If  you’re interested in these paintings, or would like to talk about a custom piece of artwork for your space, please email me at  jon@jonpeters.com
