Mussel Delite - Jan Nicholson

Original watercolor painting titled "Mussel Delite" by Jan Nicholson, a Camano Island, Washington artist. This intimate coastal still life depicts several mussel shells arranged in a simple composition, painted in soft washes of blue, gray, cream, and lavender. The loose watercolor technique and subtle palette evoke the natural beauty of Pacific Northwest shorelines.

The painting is hand signed "J. Nicholson" in the lower right corner. The reverse retains the original exhibition label identifying the artwork as "Mussel Delite" along with the artist's business card, providing excellent provenance. Professionally matted and framed under glass in an attractive wood-tone frame, this original artwork is ready to hang and makes an ideal addition to any coastal, beach house, or Pacific Northwest art collection.
