Nautical Scales

How do you navigate through life? Nautical scales help sailors find their way. Floats mark the fishing spots or signal danger. Many of us weigh and measure our food, our bodies, and so many aspects of our lives in an effort to attain optimal health. Artists navigate a world of color and design, that is always trying to pass judgement and take the measure of us.

We all have a scale whose data informs and guides us. Some of those scales are old and rusty and ready for retirement, but it's hard to let them go. They are beautiful in their own way.
