On a beach I found a conch shell that reminded me of the book Lord of the Flies, its storyline reflecting how an inanimate object can become powerful. 

In reference to my painting

“Ralph took the conch and held it to his lips; but then he hesitated and did not blow.  He held the shell up instead and showed it to them and they understood.”
