I am so pleased that I’ve discovered the fabulous Beach House Art! They've got lots of gift ideas for both adding some colour to the home or at work, or somewhere where you want people to get a connection to the sea and coasts!

They have a real passion for the coast, the sea, nature and outdoor life.  And it shows in their prints and photographic gifts which are both high quality and affordable.  I think they are great fun, they are lively and full of energy and passion and vibrant in colour.  Mind you, the black and white ones are amazing, too, such as this one, the Three Surfboards on the beach Photography print. 

I love their simpleness in their designs such as this one with the lobster – so striking;  it really draws the eye.

 
I just adore the colours in this picture,
the Ethereal Coast Painting from Beach House Art.
I really get the sense of power from the sea and the natural world.

To show the depth of their passion, they’ve got prints and photos you wouldn’t normally think of having, such as red seaweed prints and watercolour seaweed paintings which really bring the sea into a room!    There’s coral art, too.

This is the Indigo Seaweed Print from Beach House Art - just beautiful!

Their beach photography shows many aspects of beach life and sea life which immediately connect you to the coast.  Some of the photos and prints pick up on different aspects of sea life, zooming in on items such as ropes and tackle, sails, a lifeguard hut, and palm trees. 

There’s sailing wall art, too, two of which have quotes such as “A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor” and “We can’t direct the wind but we can adjust our sails. 

They come framed or unframed – if the latter, they come in a roll.  And there are different sizes to choose from, too.

The prints and photos also understand the connection many of us have with the sea and sealife, such as this one, with the quote, Gulls just wanna have chips.   Gulls just love to swoop in on human food and you can imagine them flying down to grab some chips. 

 
This is a fun print from Beach House Art, and it's full of colour!

There are print sets, too, of two or three pictures, making for a very striking display. 

Their prints and photo prints make for great gifts for anyone who feels a connection  the sea – it brings it into the home.   You can almost smell the salty fresh air!

Sail away to Beach House Art to take a look for yourself!
