"Red" Photograph - Limited Edition of 10

Monique Brathwaite is a woman of many gifts and talents. From a young age, she was involved in many aspects of the arts including drawing and painting. However, the vagaries of life pulled her in the direction of law and she became a practicing attorney-at-law in her homeland of Barbados.
As God would have it, she experienced a lull in practice, and this is when she took up photography. Her father (now deceased) loaned her his camera and when he saw the work, she did with it, gave it to her.
In 2016 Monique entered (for the first time) the National Independence Festival of Creative Arts (NIFCA) in Barbados with a photo-narration piece made up of 5 photographs called, “My Journey to Him” which was about her search for a lifeguard. It won a bronze award and she also won an incentive award of $1500 toward the study of photography at the institution of her choice. She chose the London Art College. There, she gained an online and correspondence diploma in Photography. She graduated with a merit. Photography has been her passion ever since.
