” Arts fascinate me! I am a raw Jamaican artist, I am fully grown… I write, I paint, I photograph, I jingle, I model, I build models, theme parties, face painting, booth displays.. I can’t get enough of art, I therefore can’t give enough – so I keep on giving my heart to art, and my arts to all hearts” Anthea McGibbon
