Caribbean Doors, Dominica by Corrie Scott

Caribbean Doors

Dominica West Indies

P hotogra phy Corrie S cott

“Many of these wooden houses are now lost to us and so I have tried to preserve them visually so that we may not forget the traditional architecture of our Caribbean.

I love the worn, weathered and much fixed doors, windows and structures.

These photographs were taken in Dominica between 2007 and 2009 while I stayed at a wonderful house called Ramelton in the rainforest. I was there to photograph Ramelton to build a website and while there I drove around Dominica.

A stunningly beautiful island.

More photography may be seen on the site I built for Ramelton House www.rameltondominica.net “ Corrie Scott 2010

Corrie Scott Corrie, self taught, has photographed , and also scribbled and painted on everything she could find since childhood. Her first camera, a Brownie, captured her sisters, whom she used to dress up and pose them for modelling for the camera. Her special love of the Caribbean is apparent in her photography and her art.

In her daily travels, and also world travels, Corrie always has a camera close to hand to capture those elusive human moments and those ' around the corner' views that delight. The back light of a flower, a turtle popping its head up above water, a lonely worker in the fields, a huddle of ladies gossiping under and umbrella, the balletic movements of the fishermen as they use their nets. So much that surrounds us.

Also an artist, her exercise books were always full of doodles in the margins, and she was always in trouble for it with her teachers, who felt she was not concentrating on her studies.

Working and experimenting in all mediums, she does not restrict herself in subject matter, going from clean representational watercolours to large abstract pieces in acrylics and mixed media.

Her photography and art may be found at Tides Gallery at The Tides Restaurant in Holetown , St James, The Barbados Arts Council Gallery at Pelican Village in Bridgetown, or she may be contacted at her studio ( by appointment please as she may be out painting or photographing) Corrie Scott
