CORVALLIS, OR, February 06, 2011
Words From The Sea is a coastal letter art collection of natural seafoam shapes, delivered by the ocean, not formed by hand or digitally created. The alphabet photography series, available in wall art and greeting cards at http://www.WordsFromTheSea.com, includes several variations of every letter in the English language, as well as numbers, punctuation marks, hearts, animals and other shapes.Building this collection of seafoam letters and shapes was a two-year photographic quest by the company's president, acclaimed photographer, David Paul Bayles. "It began as I walked on the beach with my wife Lea, celebrating her birthday. Suddenly a heart appeared at my feet in pure, white foam. It was a magical moment - a gift from the sea," said Bayles.
