This week our special guest, Phyllis Broom-Walker, award winning Jamaican/Canadian artist and labrish fan, joins us in the Backyard to share memories of her dear friend and fellow artist Albert Huie. Albert Huie another son of Trelawney Jamaica knew that he was “born to be an artist”, and began painting as far back as he could remember. His mother and grandmother, who raised him, worried about his reserved personality and that he spent so much time observing nature. Join us as Phyllis recalls memories that inspired her artistic spirit as the labrish continues to “Celebrate, Enlighten, and Preserve” the rich and diverse culture of Jamaica “Land We Love”
