Behance Creative Network released An Ode to Creative Work as a visual statement of all designers and artistic persons.
"Creative work is a labor of love. All too often, we celebrate creation and overlook the difficult and emotional labor behind the scenes.

Jobs had been collaborating with renowned French designer Philippe Starck on the project. On one hand all this news has a taste of bitterness, on the other we'd liked Jobs to overcome all that storms around Apple nowadays right on this beautiful yacht.
