Who we are

The idea for Shark & Stone began in 2022 with two friends sitting around a campfire dreaming of ways to share our love of rocks, driftwood, and beach glass in the form of art which you can bring into your home or yard.

Shark & Stone has been an outlet for us and our families to improve both physical and mental health as life treats us all differently. We hope to spread this benefit to customers, friends, family, and fellow artists. We seek to inspire those who love nature to get outside and explore, and to find the beauty in all you see.

Jenny – I grew up in VT on the shores of Lake Champlain and have always enjoyed collecting rocks, shells, glass or driftwood from beaches whether they be sandy, rocky, fresh, or salty but my collections truly began in Hawaii for shells and driftwood, and northern California where I collected agates and other stones which caught my eye. My friend showed me the difference between agate and quartz and I was hooked. Her beautiful bowls of polished rocks inspired me as we moved from California to New York to Michigan, started a family and began raising our three children. My family and I collected beach glass during our summer visits to VT and I finally began polishing rocks that I had collected along the way in 2020. Sherryl and I met when our daughters were in kindergarten and my collection was nothing compared to hers. She had creative displays of nature’s treasures all throughout her home. I loved it! In addition, Sherryl loved sharks, as did my older son. My art is inspired by nature and its’ many shapes from sea to sky.
