This is an oil painting, 30×30cm canvas. This picture was inspired by a photograph which a friend took and the inspiration to finish it was found within Symphony X’s song, Lady of the Snow.

This is Isabella Swan form New Moon by Stephanie Meyer. Its sybolic as anyone who’s read the book knows that bella does not have wings and is not wearing a dress in this scene XP / SPOILERThis is the part where Bella is lying on the floor in the forest just after Edward leaves her, and its supposed to feel like the end of everything, like there was no meaning left for her so I drew this to represent that, and well I just love drawing angel wings! / This is not a picture of the actress either, its more how I imagined Bella XD just so you know! / Hope you like her!! XP

He’s made of mouldy cheese, having coalesced into sentient miserableness following an unfortunate accident in the microwave. Everything makes him pull a grouchy poe face, even rainbows. Don’t piss him off, or he’ll stinkificate your ass.

5.4.09 – Taken with a Kodak 10mp v1003. Teetering on the western flank of Ter Hill is the corner of an newtake belonging to the old Foxtor Farm, here the gateway overlooks the infamous Foxtor Mires and Swincombe Valley. A few feet away from the gateway stands an old granite cross which is one of the line of wayside crosses that marked the Maltern Way which was a very early monastic track that ran from Buckfast to Buckland abbeys. Although not marked on the OS map the newtake corner and the cross all take there name from the old enclosure – Mount Misery. William Crossing records how in 1878 he found the cross lying on the ground in an opening to the newtake, in 1879 he revisited the spot and saw the cross had been re-erected. However, two years later he again called in on the cross and saw it was once again recumbent which he attributed to the moorland cattle using it as a rubbing post or knocking it over during a drift. With the help of a bag of cement the cross was finally re-erected and firmly secured into its socket by the Dartmoor Preservation Society in 1885. Crossing was always a man for using place-names where ever possible but for some reason in this book of 1892 he gives no mention of Mount Misery, the cross is simply described as being at the, “eastern corner of the newtake”. But by the time he published ’ Crossing’s Guide to Dartmoor in 1909 (p.464) he was acknowledging the fact that the cross stood at Mount Misery, could this mean that the name was only given to the spot sometime between 1892 and 1909? Page (1895, p.260) also simply describes the cross as being, “in the eastern corner of the deserted newtake”, again no mention of Mount Misery? But for now let’s get back to the cross, today it stands at 1.66m and has a circumference of 94.5cm, the span of the arms stretches to 73cm and are aligned on a north – south axis, (Sandles, 1997 p.70). Now to return to the actual place-name – Mount Misery, it sounds as if at one time something drastic happened here but it’s more likely that the name refers to the fertility or profitability of the actual land. The actual enclosure belonged to the old Fox Tor Farm for which the Duchy granted first lease in 1807 and throughout its history the farm was used for both grazing and growing crops. In many cases the early Dartmoor enclosures has to be cleared of rocks and/or ‘spaded’ which was basically burning and pairing the ground prior to cultivation. In the early 1800s the so-called ‘improvers’ were working under the idea that if farmed properly the moorland wastes could be ‘tamed’ in such a way as to return a good profit which in most cases just resulted in ruin. It is with the word, “ruin”, that the answer to the name Mount Misery lies because any land which was unproductive was considered a failure and so names were given to them which would reflect this fact. This is one of many photos in the ‘Crosses on Dartmoor’ series, please visit my Bubblesite to view the whole range. A few more examples are shown below:

Welcome to Hell! This photo was taken just outside Hell station. Hell is actually a small village in Stjørdal, Norway with a population of 352. The name Hell actually comes from the Old Norse word ‘hellir’, which means ‘overhang’ or ‘cliff cave’ but it can also mean ‘luck’ in Norwegian.

Candid shot. I watched this man and his children for some time, from a distance, and noted how patient and attentive he was with his young charges. They were sitting on the ground (stating the obvious), listening to some entertainers at a local community event. It was nearing the end of the day, and the little fellow on dad’s lap became somewhat restless after a while, and although crying and demanding, the man demonstrated much patience and tolerance, admirable really. In this case, the middle child became Misery incarnate. “Misery is His Middle Name” was FEATURED in The Human Condition Group, 30 Sept 2009
