Key West Art

One of the things I enjoyed about the weekend in Key West was the possibility of finding an artful treasure around any corner. Local artists fashioned pieces out of ceramic, steel, old bikes and cars, wood, fruit, fabrics and photographs. At times there is a distinctly 'island' feel to the art and other times the blow-in nature of the Keys inhabitants brings echoes of modernity and ethnic diversity.The styling of houses and stores, bars, restaurants and food, accompanied by natures delights, were all a feast for the senses. 

Here are some of my favorite finds!
