The bold patterns of color were the visual lure that got them both—hook, line and sinker! Ward had painted markers many years ago and wanted to include the painting in our debut exhibit…so what was a collaborating buddy to do? I had to go out and find markers to photograph and create from! One of the neat things about our collaboration was how we caused each other to expand our vision and find intrigue in subjects that we frequently avoided. In this tourist shop in Ft. Meyer, Florida I found assorted decorative buoys on ropes and out of desperation photographed them with my iPhone. It took a lot of work and ingeunity bu in the end I was pleased with this creation…and it made Ward happy too!
