Sand, sea and pebbles

I have frequently thought of creating a series of pictures, textile pieces or collages of the sand beaches with its pebbles. I have planned to somehow include real sand - of different nuances and coarseness. pebbles can be made from textiles or be embroidered - or be made from paper or orher material. The important thing is to capture the different colour of sand layers on a beach - the mix with algues and pebbles that form the bands of colour along a beach. Hopefully one of these days I will have the time. The ideas might also continue to develop in the head - perhaps for another few - or many months!
