Bermuda Memories - Jill Amos Raine Studio
	I feel a wide sense of freedom when I paint on location. I can feel the air; warm, cold, changeable. I notice the smells, and hear all the subtle sounds of nature. Even the inevitable interruptions and distractions help to make my painting an all encompassing experience! I paint as my senses are bombarded by natural harmonies and discords. I react to the divergent lines of our verdant vegetation and at the same time, to the smooth curving lines of the ever present ocean. I absorb all the brilliant colours – colours that challenge me, even defy me to mimic their liveliness on my formidable piece of white paper.

Graham Foster
	Born in 1970, Bermudian artist and sculptor Graham Foster is strongly influenced by the island in much of his work. While his main direction is steel sculpture and surreal paintings, he also paints several Bermuda themed paintings a year which are made into high quality lithographic prints, personally signed and titled. These are painted in a variety of styles, from surreal to traditional, capturing the island's flaura, fauna, architecture, people and traditions in bold colour and considerable detail.


Kirk's Jewelry
	Kirk’s Jewelers is one of Bermuda’s small treasures. Located in the Butterfield Place on Front Street in Hamilton, it is where you can find original, & unique pieces designed by Kirk himself. We are very well known locally for our outstanding craftsmanship, and take great pride in our work. During our 25 years of jewelry design, we have created many one-of-a-kind pieces, however, if you don’t see what you want, talk to Kirk and most likely he can create it for you.
