My father was a dentist in the Navy during World War II. When I was a little girl, he gave me a box of shells from the island of Eniwetok in the Marshall Islands. I don’t know much about his tour of duty, other than he was on the Ajax and that he not only was a dentist, but acted as a medic as well, assisting surgeons in operations aboard ship.
I used textures from Kim Klassen to enhance this image- specifically serendipity and paperstainedmusic- and am participating in this week’s Texture Tuesday (on Thursday).
