Angel Fresco




This was such a graceful, faint remnant of an angel fresco on the wall of a house in Pompeii, I couldn’t resist photographing it.

Pompeii Memorial


This piece visually tells the story of Pompeii.

Barely visible in the background on the far right is a sliver of Mt. Vesuvius, which erupted in A.D. 79 covering the city and its people with 30 feet of volcanic ash. The city, preserved by the ash, was rediscovered in the 17th century and excavated in the mid 18th century. This piece also includes an image of a plaster cast of an individual who died in the tragedy and an excavated street in Pompeii.

This piece was in my Impressions of Italy show and in Columbus, OH at the Riffe Gallery's Let's Get Digital exhibit.

Time Elapse


I was struck by the sight of poppies growing among the ancient ruins in Italy, particularly in the large amphitheater in Pompeii and on Palatine Hill in Rome. In some cases it looked like the poppies could slowly rise up and overtake the remnants of stone. This prompted me to create this time elapse image of the poppies.

This piece was in my Impressions of Italy show.

Columns



This piece was created using an image of a line of trees in Pompeii which I combined with an image of a colonnade in St Peter’s Square. The row of trees looked like natural columns, inspiring me to combine the two images to create natural and man-made columns.

This piece was in my Impressions of Italy show and is now on exhibit in Michele Waalkes ARTS, located on the main floor of 2nd April galerie and Studios at 324 Cleveland Ave. NW, Canton, OH 44702. Hours are Tuesday- Saturday 10am - 6pm.

Inside Out


Inside Out is a result of overlapping images of an interior tunnel going under a large amphitheater and the exterior steps of a small theater, both located in Pompeii. I liked the result of seeing both perspectives simultaneously.
