WTWS Inspires Artist
Mike Merrit of Austin, Texas writes to share his passion for water towers. Not only does he photograph them, he also makes original models like the one shown here. This model is made from clay, steel and molded rubber. It bears a striking resemblance to the World’s Tallest Water Sphere, especially with the vibrant blue color scheme of the 1990s. We hope the WTWS will provide him with continued inspiration.
Mike also has a Flickr site with more images of water towers and his inspired artwork.
