"In 1707, according to Daniel TV Huntoon, “the population of the precinct” had extended so far south that it was decided by the Dorchester Committee to locate a meeting-house on Packeen Plain [now Canton Corner], and it was deemed convenient and desirable to have a burial-place nearby. The Native American people who owned the land supposedly “cheerfully” relinquished all their interest in it, and the spot selected was “that portion of the present cemetery which lies nearly west of Central Avenue, and extends to within a few feet east of the only row of tombs in the cemetery; it is bounded on the north by Prospect Avenue and on the south by the Washington Street wall.” In 1716, Gilbert Endicott became the first person to be interred in the cemetery. Around 1791, George Crosman agreed to grant an addition to the Burying Place, as it was then known, next to his land. In 1816, Abel Wentworth became the first person to be interred in the Meetinghouse lot. The following year, Oliver Downes deeded one acre of land for the cemetery for $50. The “westmost” corner of this was reserved for the burial of foreigners and persons of color.
In 1837, a receiving tomb was built. In 1840, the First Congregational Church gave a quit-claim deed of the Old Meetinghouse Lot to the town for cemetery purposes. In 1848, the town purchased over nine and three-quarters acres of land from Oliver Downes’s heirs; at this time, the Aqueduct Company reserved its rights in the cemetery. The landscaping for the newly-acquired portion of the cemetery was aided by the Honorable Henry A. S. Dearborn, who founded the Forest Hills Cemetery. Dearborn’s expertise did not go un-noticed: according to Huntoon, “the beauty of our cemetery has become renowned throughout the State, and visitors who have traveled far and wide have expressed the opinion that it is the most beautiful rural cemetery in the country. The superintendents of city cemeteries have visited it, praised its natural advantages, and admired the wide view from Prospect Hill. To our own citizens, the cemetery has become a matter of pride. Many expensive and beautiful monuments have been erected within its precincts; the greensward has been carefully attended to; and the whole ground presents' an attractive and beautiful appearance.” In 1870, the town purchased ten acres of land from William Horton for cemetery purposes; this land adjoined the addition of 1848. Fourteen properly-inscribed tablets were erected to the memory of soldiers who died during the Civil War, whose graves had not been previously designated. A lot for these soldiers was also set aside. In 1876, the body of General Richard Gridley was reinterred in the cemetery, having been moved from the Gridley Family Graveyard; the town erected a monument in his honor. In 1882, the receiving tomb was rebuilt from G. Walter Capen’s designs.

This property was an old bungalow in need of modernisation. The brief was to extend into a large, modern family home with all the latest technology.

Still the best Apple 1 replica out there :-)
I have also delivered one to Steve Wozniak, one of the Co-founders of Apple Computers.
Water color paint and color pencil on paper, size 18″x24″ (2012)
A large eye of Horus with veins extending from the center outward. Upon each fork in the vein there is a drop of blood. The drops of blood represent a newly created vampire. This piece is an interpretation of the vampires that trace their lineage back to Akasha. Akasha is a character from Anne Rice’s Queen of the Damned. Akasha is the mother of all vampires. From her all vampires descend. Her blood flows through out all vampires. If they kill her, they will kill themselves. The paths represent her blood as it courses through all vampires. The piece as a whole is like a family tree.
This piece I created during a water color class in college. We were asked to read a book and interpret it as a water color painting. For my book I chose Queen of the Damned by Anne Rice. In the book Lestat and several other vampires must stop Akasha from killing all men on earth. Akasha is who all vampires descend from. Akasha takes Lestat as her consort. While he is drinking her blood he has a vision. He sees all the vampires all over the world. They are all connected to Akasha in a spider web like design. This visual gave me the idea for the web inner lacing of the vines. I used the eye of Horus because Akasha was the ruler of Egypt and Horus was the god of war and hunting. I placed the eye at the center to represent Akasha as the center of the vampiric web. I painted this piece with hues of greens and ochres. I wanted to make it feel weathered and old. When I painted the vines I left some of the paint on the pencil marks to give a rustic unclean look. The veins/vines are made with white color pencil. Color pencils are wax based. Water color paint is resistant to wax. When water color paint is applied to the area covered in wax the paint runs off of the pencil marks leaving only the white of the pencil behind.
01 May 2009. This family of greylag geese were interesting in that it appeared that all three adults were attached to the group and they all acted as out-riders for the goslings fending off other birds that got too close.
