Jacobite Hogwarts Express Necklace: Micro Painting on Sea Glass
DESCRIPTIONThis necklace features a train crossing the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, Scotland, perhaps best known from the Harry Potter movies. The train in this painting is based on both the Hogwarts Express from Harry Potter as well as the real life Jacobite Steam Train.
The Highlands are painted with fine attention to detail. There are even windows on the train.
DETAILS:
Frosty whitish semi-transparent sea glass from Niagara River
Oil paint and glossy coating
18 inch 18k gold-plated chain and bail (shiny and sturdy) with lobster claw clasp (closes securely)
Black velvet necklace box with gold ribbon bow included
JACOBITE STEAM TRAIN and HOGWARTS EXPRESS:
The steaming scarlet Hogwarts Express from the Harry Potter books and movies may have been inspired by the Jacobite Steam Train.
The company running the Jacobite service provided Warner Brothers with the train used as the Hogwarts Express in all of the Harry Potter movies and allowed them use of the Jacobite's route for filming. (Source: Jacobite Trail.)
The Jacobite Steam Train passes majestic lochs and highlands and is described as the greatest railway journey in the world. (Source: Trip Advisor.)
SEA GLASS’S JOURNEY:
Sand was turned into glass
The glass was made into products
The products were consumed and discarded
Water, sand, and wind soften the broken bits of glass
I find it on a sandy beach and turn it into something new
COLOR MATCH QUEEN:
I’m known as the Color Match Queen of social media because I have the skill of mimicking colors realistically with my paint.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
I pursue high-efficiency, low waste art making methods because I care about the environment. Those methods include using repurposed items, like sea glass, as “canvases” for my paintings.
