  • Joggins Terra #3

    Reconstruction of a coal-age, Carboniferous forest from the Joggins Fossil Cliffs of Nova Scotia. The image depicts the hollow, fire-scared trunks of various species of the lycopod tree Sigillaria and a large seed fern stem growing on an elevated river levee on the edge of a flooded marsh. The larger trunk on the left is being used as a shelter by the small reptile Hylonomus. The large millipede Arthropleura emerges from a cluster of tree ferns. The forest floor is littered with seed fern and tree fern fronds, the strap-like leaves of Cordates, small Sigillaria limbs and shed Sigillaria leaves. Small lycopods and sphenophyllum grow up through the leaf litter. The predatory amphibian Dendrerpeton baskes at the water's edger, while thick stands of the horsetail Calamites march off across the open swamp of Sigillaria and Lepidodendron trees.

    Pencil and graphite dust on 2-ply bristol, 14.25 x 27 inches, 2007.  Commissioned for the Joggins Fossil Centre.
