Sea Stars are a big part of our underwater world and a big part of our global connective. The same sea stars we see in the Mesophotic depths of the #flowergardenbanksnationalmarinesanctuary are located in the Indian Ocean and our waters are interconnected through us and our marine species. The COP15 is taking place and The conversation of Biodiversity is at the forefront of our future for our oceans. Here you see my work portraying a little scene from our marine sanctuary off our Texas coast in the Gulf. Lets work together to remember our actions matter and what we do matters.

A few more behind-the-scenes photos of the process involved in bringing my sea anemones to life. At this point you could really see details in the glazing process and the finishing touches with gold by Duncan. Stay tuned for detailed photos of the finished works! Can anyone else guess what's in the oven next to the sea anemones? #janavimfolmsbee #janavimahimturafolmsbee #marineconservation #marineconservationartist #marinelife #conservation #oceanlife #scubadiving #houston #houstonartist #blueplanet #seaanemone #ceramic #ceramics #ceramicart #ceramica #contemporaryceramics #sculpture #sculpturalceramics #handpainted #clay #lusterfire #kilnfired #indianocean (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeB2f97MjMS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

1/4 - My handmade, hand painted ceramic sea anemones. Each one is a unique, one of a kind piece. Just like the real ones that inspire me on every dive. I look back at the amount of time and details that took to create these and think to myself, it was so worth it. #janavimfolmsbee #janavimahimturafolmsbee #marineconservation #marineconservationartist #marinelife #conservation #oceanlife #scubadiving #houston #houstonartist #blueplanet #seaanemone #ceramic #ceramics #ceramicart #ceramica #contemporaryceramics #sculpture #sculpturalceramics #handpainted #clay #lusterfire #kilnfired #indianocean (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeENzzlumFk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
