I think it's important to just be in your subconscious mind - at least when you're starting an idea.

I am home grown St. Lucian. Born in 1980 I have spent most of my life on this island. Apart from the few summers I spent in the United States I spent most of my time in my homeland.

I was constantly drawing and colouring. I had an immense love for art and anything which involved art fascinated me.

I went to this boy's choir school when I was growing up, and I think that the first time that I consciously started making music was when this one kid joined our class. He was an amazing pianist and would come up with all these ideas. I've always had a really competitive side, so I saw him doing that, and was like, "I have to try writing songs as well."

I had my first exhibition in September, 2012. This was when I first introduced the public to my style of the incorporation of cloth in my paintings. It was well received and everyone was fascinated with the work on display. I also invited other young aspiring artist to display they work which was also well received.

I believe that people have to be sensitized more about the many jobs an individual can branch out to after studying an art form.

Apart from the traditional paintings I also dabble with a little photography.
