Like a lot of people, the moment Marley Wilkinson set foot in Maine, she fell in love with it. Even beyond the craggy beauty of the landscape, she was fascinated by the working waterfront, and the bevy of multicolored lobster buoys that dotted the coast in the summer.
“It’s amazing to me how hard the lobstermen work, how strong their family traditions are, and how proud they are of their buoys,” says Wilkinson. “I’m in awe of the dedication that the men and women put into their craft.”
When Wilkinson launched Cobalt Sky Studio a decade ago, she drew from the fishing traditions that had fascinated her.
