The images below were some that I wasn’t able to show at my exhibition at the Sunrise Civic Center Art Gallery. So I decided to reveal them here. It’s from a series I have been working on and still working on. I will continue to reveal more images from the series as I go along. Any thoughts or suggestions you have on the images feel free to share them with me.
Thanks

Just wanted to say thanks to all my friends who came out to The Sunrise Civic Center Art Gallery last night to view my work. Incase you were wondering where were all the controversial pieces that Im known for; well the city didn’t want me showing them because they were trying to keep it a family atmosphere. However, Im thinking of posting a few in the near future so stay tuned. Special thanks to Christine and Sady for the opportunity to show case my work.
Thanks to all who came out.
Sheyla & Amy

It’s been well over ten years that I last experience Jamaica’s carnival so I was well overdue. Around 10am I met up with my favorite Jamaican photographer Dwayne Watkins and his assistant Steven. From there we were off to a very adventurous day. We started out with the intention of only marching halfway but the carnival vibe hit us early and we couldn’t seem to break away. I was warned that it normally rains every year for Jamaica’s carnival and yes this year was no exception. Luckily my camera bag has a rain coat; however, the down pour was so hard we had to seek shelter. Eventually the rain passed and it was back on the road again. Continuing on the journey I met up with Dj Bambino & Dj Walshy Fire and this is where the fun began. Deciding that we needed a bit more vibes Dj Bambino took over a truck and tore the place down playing all the soca favorites. I must add that I’m very impressed with this year’s soca and next year God willing I will try for Trinidad’s carnival.
