Amoria Zebra — Original Acrylic Shell Painting (Framed 13x13)

Two ivory-and-burgundy striped Amoria zebra shells — painted in acrylic with a soft pastel ribbon of color running between them.

A close-up study of two Amoria zebra shells — the prized striped volute shell, a collector’s favorite from the warm waters of northern Australia — painted in acrylic on stretched cotton canvas. Each shell is built up in confident strokes of warm ivory, soft cream, and pale peach, with bold ribbons of deep burgundy and plum running their length. A wide pastel band of lavender, blush, butter yellow, and seafoam runs between them, like stained glass or an abstract memory of an inside aperture.

The shells float against a clean, soft sea-glass blue ground that lets the pattern take center stage. Painted with a loose, painterly hand — the stripes laid in long, flowing brush strokes; the shoulders and spires built up in delicate ridge-and-shadow detail. A modern, painterly take on a classic seashell still life.

Finished in a clean white floater frame and protected with archival varnish so the surface stays clean and the colors stay true. The whole piece arrives ready to hang straight from the box — no additional framing or matting needed.

A natural fit for a coastal home, beach house, sunroom, primary bath, powder room, breakfast nook, or any room that wants a piece of soft, modern coastal color. A meaningful housewarming, anniversary, retirement, or wedding gift for a beach-house family or a serious shell collector. Equal parts Sanibel, Sea Island, Kiawah, Outer Banks, and Cape Cod.
