Earl Darius Etienne is undoubtedly the most recognized artist, and the most internationally exposed artist, living and working in Dominica to date. He was born in 1957 in Roseau, the capital of the Nature Island of Dominica.

In 1980, Earl was awarded an OAS Fellowship to study fine art at the Edna Manley College of Visual and Performing Arts in Jamaica. Pursuing creative studies in Jamaica. While studying in Jamaica, Earl had an accident involving fire. The result of the accident inspired him to develop his own unique style of using the image formed by soot, applied directly from a flame, in his artistic work. Earl returned to Dominica after graduation in 1986 and took up a post as a Cultural Officer in the Ministry of Culture while continuing to paint.

Earl Etienne’s artistic works have been featured in many international, regional, and local exhibitions. His works have been included in curated art collections of note in the Caribbean, Europe, and North America.

About the Artist, Lisette Stevens (Lisette Series):

Lisette Stevens is a self-taught artist who makes her home in the forested interior of the Nature Island of Dominica.  Her depictions of the exotic bird and marine life of the island are truly synchronized with her spirit: an unmatched reverence and passion for life in general. Her simple but faithful depictions are full of color, energy, and expressive eyes.

Among her paintings include the two endemic parrots of Dominica; The Sisserou or Imperial Parrot (Amazona Imperialis) and the Jacko or Red-Necked Parrot (Amazona Arausiaca.) Another is the female Blue-headed Hummingbird (Cyanophaia bicolor) sitting on a nest, after a photograph by ornithologist Dr. Paul Reillo. A highlight of her painting career was when she presented a limited-edition portrait of one of her paintings to the Prince of Wales when he visited Dominica after Hurricane Maria in 2017. Other paintings are of the various turtles that live in the seas surrounding Dominica. We hope that you will enjoy viewing and purchasing her work.
