Create a Floating Retreat for Artists!
Because every artist needs a quick get-away plan...
Conceived by Ben Crosky, the
Floating Retreat will be constructed from the Solonia, a refurbished WWII tugboat otherwise doomed for the ship graveyard (yes, a real place). Crosky is seeking $250 in Kickstarter investments to support the ship's first artist in residency for a month above the vessel.
The ships is supposedly equipped with a full-size bed and a twin bed (that's TWO beds, everyone!) a decked-out kitchen (read: a refrigerator, stove top, toaster oven, sink and counter space) and a bathroom with a sink, toilet and a hot water shower.
Canvases, acrylic, and paintbrushes with which to create a stunning depiction of the sunrise are not included.
