About the Artist
I was born in Trinidad in the West Indies of Indian decent and came to England in the 1960s to nurse. I’ve had a lifelong interest in painting and having brought up a family and retired from nursing, pursuing new aims in art. My paintings show the life of the Caribbean, in representations of the colours, rhythms and warmth of the region’s culture and landscape. The subjects of my recent work include the seascapes of the Caribbean coast, the flora and fauna of the tropical rainforest, and the exuberance of Carnival. My aim is to achieve an immediate connection with the observer, and I paint in a naïve style as the best replication of the wonder of childhood’s first impressions of colours and shapes. Please email me if are interested in prints or original. sulaartist@aol.com

Thus dry leaves symbolise the inexorable passage of time, the end of all things earthly, the reliable result of a major Baroque influence. This concept is repeated in several works, for example: Premonition (Presentimiento), Reading Old Letters (Leyendo unas cartas viejas) or Musical Solitude (Soledad musicada). 
In the wood titled Rose, anecdotally the real name of the model, the petalless rose represents not only femininity and lost innocence, but also responds to a well- known phrase by poet Federico Garcia Lorca, "Youth is a rose that dies." The plant which appears in the right background, popularly known as Adam’s Rib, symbolises the
