Whilst looking at images relating to the beach on Google the other day, I stumbled across some fascinating nautical wall decor by an artist in Florida. John Rankine has been doing nautical art work for 28 years, and I think he has developed quite an artwork in itself!
These are stunning pieces of a very unique kind. Just perfect if you like to really bring the beach and ocean inside (or outside for that matter) – I think you can nearly hear the seagulls cry just looking at these pieces.
John creates all his art by hand in his studio, and he only uses genuine driftwood from the beaches of Florida and lobsters that have been hand caught following state regulations. He uses only the shell of the lobsters, of course, and the meat is used for consumption prior to turning the lobsters into nautical wall art.
This lobster wall decor that you see in the pictures is not the only art John creates. He also custom designs lobster trap coffee and end tables with different lobster configurations, or driftwood picture frames. How authentically “beach” that is! John only uses natural and recyclable materials.
You can even bring your own prize lobster to be turned into your very own piece of art work! Just go and visit Lobster Creations to find out more, or to contact John.






I love handcrafted art pieces.. My house is full of those. Lobster creations website also looks very nice. Lovely

That is a beautiful and unique piece of artwork that would look fantastic in a “beach” themed room and I like the fact that John uses natural and recyclable materials in his designs. I also love the header you use for this blog – the very peaceful and tranquil beach setting suits the blogs theme perfectly
they look gret
nice decorations
The wall decors looked very well-made, and the lobsters still looked very much alive! Handcrafted art are very good decorations in any home and the fact that these are made from just shells are just awesome! No creepy taxidermy, LOL! Btw, loved the blue theme of this blog
