Description
I was wandering around a boat yard and noticed patterns and scrapings on the side of one boat that intrigued me. I used it for the basis of this piece that calls to mind the earthquake and the resulting tsunami that Japan experienced March 11, 2011. Here on the Oregon coast, two years later, we're discovering boats and sections of docks that have floated across the Pacific to our shores. With these concepts in mind: big waves, floating debris, a vast ocean, two countries connected, I used my photos of boat textures, old Japanese currency, and more to create this picture.
