Ocean Odyssey
"Ocean Odyssey" is an acrylic marine life painting on a smooth beach stone, created by animal artist Gunilla Wachtel. Nature's ocean waves has created the wonderful beach stone on which I created this serene blue oceanic marine life painting, titled "Ocean Odyssey." The pendant is shown next to a quarter for size comparison. Painted with acrylic paints, this orca art pendant has also been varnished with a few layers of UV-resistant clear coat. "Ocean Odyssey" comes with a luxurious, smooth turquoise satin cord. This earthy nature necklace secures with a hand drilled river rock button clasp. "Ocean Odyssey" was painted and created by artist Gunilla Wachtel from Kanweienea Kreations studio. Wearing this necklace is a great way to connect with the ocean. The specifics: West coast beach rock pendant: app. 2" x 2.5" x 1/4" (50 mm x 63 mm x 6.3 mm) Satin cord Clasp: hand drilled river rock button Length: app. 23" (58.4 cm) Title: "Ocean Odyssey" Series: "Ocean Wonders" (5/10) The back of the pendant is left unpainted (minus a few marks of paint that escaped my brush!). This way, besides seeing the natural texture of the beach stone, you can also feel the ocean touch when you hold the pendant. I have also initialed and dated the back of the pendant. This ocean inspired art pendant will come with its own Certificate of Authenticity (CoA). *** Colors: Please note that not all monitors display colors the same way. I've done my best to portray the accurate colors of the item. Items may appear darker or lighter on your monitor. Copyright: © Gunilla Wachtel and Kanweienea Kreations studio.
