About the Work

From the Artist

This print is a composite of two photographs I took in Jamaica in 2006. We were returning from the south coast of the island, a town called Treasure Beach, when we passed a woman who was leaving church, on the way to work. The sun was shining but in the distance, we could see a storm approaching. The other photo was taken at dusk. There was a full moon rising over a tiny fishing village near Calabash Bay. I merged the two photos and altered the color tonalities. The resulting image, merging these two scenes from that trip, is the basis for my print image—Approaching Storm, Jamaica.
