more paintings of jamaica
Attachment 31376
this painting is a tribute to one of the greatest jewelers in jamaica, Alphonso Jackson, who left this planet a few years ago. Maybe some of you knew him and his work. He was a dear friend. For those of you who are not familiar with his incredible jewelry, his wife, Diane, has been carrying on. She generally sets up at LTU pub.
I have set up an album on my facebook page...images of jamaica, for those of you who would like to see.

What a great piece of art, Alfonso was a friend and Diana is to this day, I have a number of pieces of jewellery from over the years from Alfonso and I have a couple of Diana originals as well.
What a great way to start my Sunday morning.
Peace,
Islander

Hey Elise,
thank you for sharing your work. My wife is an artist as well and she has found that Negril is getting her creative juices flowing again. She did a painting of a well know Jamaican artist last year and it was really cool to see his reaction when she gave it to him.
If I could get beyond stick figures I could paint all day with the vibrance of Jamaica.
Re: more paintings of jamaica
the thing is, booger, that if you really wanted to use painting to express yourself, starting with stick figures might just be incredible. everybody has the ability. it's the judgments about whether or not it's good that keep us from so many self expressive activities.
