Laura creates hand-painted coastal seashell artwork and custom watercolor portraits that turn your special memories into art. From faceless family sketches to unique seashell ornaments, every piece is made with care to celebrate the people, pets, and places YOU love. Her signature beach aerial watercolors aim to evoke a sense of sonder, wonder, and joy.

Laura Kinsella is the original creator of the Portrait Seashell™. Each piece is painted in her signature watercolor style using a unique process she developed specifically for painting detailed portraits and scenes on natural seashells.
