“INKWELL FOLKS!”

An on-going long term photo project by photographer Michael Johnson wherein he is creating artistic photographic images of the many diverse folks who do their thing at our historic Inkwell Beach, with the historic Inkwell Beach sign, Whether they are longtime generational visitors or day-trippers here for hours, they contribute to the history/culture of this place. This series is created to be an enlightening and enlivening celebratory documentary photo collection to share with future generations so they may see some of the folks who have enjoyed and enriched this historic place. I render this series in “sepia tone” to give a warmth, timelessness and slightly nostalgic feel to the images.
