By RENNY SEVERANCE I Executive Editor Five island artists gathered Monday night at the Key Lime Bistro on Captiva to display their works on some- what unusual canvases — newspaper boxes. Ait on the News was conceived by Island Reporter publisher, Tonya Squibb in concert with Sandy Stilwell, owner of the Key Lime Bistro and other Captiva estab- lishments. Too often, newspaper boxes dot the landscape adding little to the visual experience. Instead, they are merely tolerated as necessities to bring us the informa- tion we need. These islands abound with artistic talent and it only made sense to these ladies to ask some of the artists to use their abilities to decorate newspaper boxes. Five artists agreed to help and their work will be displayed around the islands while the news is delivered to the public. "It helps beautify our community as well as give some recognition to some of our local artists for the next year," said Squibb. Heather Siabosz, Pam Rambo, Shelia Tardosky, Laura Ball and Kassia Strauss responded to the call and each came up with her own design. Using motifs of sea turtles, polka dots, artistic maps, mermaids and vacation scenes, they applied their talents to their own unique designs. Slabosz's quite detailed creation featured artistic detailed maps of Sanibel and Captiva decorated with birds and more. "Every time I thought I was through, I Photo by Terri Blackmore kept thinking, 'just one more item,'" said Siabosz. (L-R): Kassia Strauss, Sheila Tardosky, Laura Ball, Heather Siabosz and Pam Rambo with their contributions to Art Sheila Tardosky's work reflected the relaxed aspects of on the Box. these resort communities while Kassia Strauss employed mermaids and tropical motifs. Laura Ball's newspaper Photos by box was a study in underwater imagination. Renny Severance "I thought it was going to be really easy" said Rambo. "But then I got into it and I just kept working on it." The result was reminiscent of the Op Art movement, a study Left: in varied and colorful stripes and polka dots.
