The Sea Venture was one of the first ships to arrive in Bermuda. It was thrown accidentally off course by a hurricane and landed on the reefs intact. Its original course was with a fleet from England headed towards / Jamestown, Virginia to aid in the colonization. From being shipwrecked, the crew and passengers of the Sea Venture settled in Bermuda and benefitted from its tropical paradise and set up a small colony. This painting is a Mixed Media piece, combining original digital photography taken in Bermuda by SBC, painting, and drawing. It is intended to capture the natural and surreal beauty of Bermuda. It won an Honorable Mention Award in the Rowayton Art Show in 2006 and First Place in the Darien Art Show in 2007.

Fort Amherst is located at the entrance of St. John’s Harbor opposite Signal Hill across the Narrows’. The Fort was built in the 1770’s to defend the entrance of the Narrows’. Gun placements were used at The Fort during WWII to protect the harbor from German U-boats. In 1813 a lighthouse was built at Fort Amherst and was to be the first permanent lighthouse established in Newfoundland. It operated until 1835 but was then replaced by a new structure in 1852, which was demolished in the early 1950’s to make way for the new lighthouse which is seen today. / More in this series / / / / / / / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography

The Cape Spear Lighthouse has been a guiding beacon for sailors since the mid 1800’s. This was only the second light to offer aid along any of Newfoundland’s rocky coasts, even though the island had at the time been populated for two centuries. / During the Second World War, Cape Spear took on a whole new significance. German submarines and raiders off the coast of the Island posed a considerable threat. A coastal defence battery, equipped with two 10” guns was constructed here to protect the entrance to St. John’s Harbor. The gun emplacements were built at the tip of the Cape and connected by underground passages to magazine and equipment rooms. From 1941 to 1945, troops were stationed here. With the end of hostilities in 1945, most of the fortifications were demolished but the gun emplacements stand as a sombre reminder of that important period in our military history / Visitors to Cape Spear in the spring and summer months should watch for whales, icebergs, and seabirds. / / Matted Print / / / / / More in this series / / / / / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography /

This picture is about how I felt about finding myself in a place that defys discription. The play of light on this icy little island is contextulized by the tiny ship’s antennae barely visible in the front of the image. Shot with b/w infrared film with a very battered old SLR in a part of the world that seemed to shape shift around me. I could never really find the words to explain what happened to me emotionally when I was faced with such terrifyingly sublime sights. Words are just not adequate to the task of representing what became a search for the faces of the gods I could sense just out of view. Images like this start to come close to that desire. So this picture then is really about the search for the path that will take me home. To the place I want to be in …. in the light…. taking me home….

Well not that I’ve been extremely active; most of you already know that I haven’t been active since school started again. But anyhow I just wanted you all to be aware that I will be away from Sept 25th – 29th. I’m going south for a school field trip visiting Cuma, Baia, Pompei, Capri, Paestum and Sperlonga. The past week I had two big deadlines; one was a casestudy of the Tiber Island, where the temple of Aesculapius, the god of healing, was built: Legend tells that there was a plague in Rome in 293 BC and the Romans sought to retrive the deity of Aesculapius from Greece. They brought back his sacred serpant, who slipped off the ship and made its way to the island, and the Romans saw this as an omen that Aesculapius wanted his temple built there. The Island was modeled in the form of a ship to commemorate this event with a sculpting of Aesculapius holding his serpant. While my group was investigating this Island I just had to take the opportunity to get this tourist shot: Well today Aesculapius is faceless. To see more of what the Island looks like, I suggest doing a google image search. I’ve been really busy lately; aside from dealines I’ve been trying to find new housing since my current place is far from my school and my landlady’s son might need my room in december. Hopefully I can find something good and move there for November and December; currently living in Monteverde but seeking a place in Trastevere. Got a lot on my hands, but for now I have to get packing for my field trip! Ciao!

I took this shot in the ruins of Fort Amherst. The old fort that was once defended the city of St. John’s from German U-boats entering the harbor now boasts only 2 abandoned guns, crumbling walls & stairs encased in years of salt blowing in off the sea and this mysteriious lady. Was she a war heroes girl or just a portrait of a moderrn day graffiti artists sweetheart? / / A History of the Fort / / Fort Amherst is located at the entrance of St. John’s Harbor opposite Signal Hill across the Narrows’.
