BlackCommentator.com Artist Watson Mere,
an artist of Haitian descent with no formal training in art, has been
creating art since he was a young child. Until age four, Watson
experienced a delay in his speech and could not verbally communicate.
His teachers introduced him to art in order to help him fully express
himself. This was his beginning.
When Watson was 11, he was introduced to the computer program, Microsoft Paint. This became his medium.
Watson finds inspiration from the love, struggles, happiness, and pain
of the people of the African diaspora. Each piece is designed to spark
the viewer's imagination as to interpret the work of art that stands
before them. With the screen as his canvas and the mouse as his
"brush", Watson meticulously transforms social issues like race,
poverty, and religion into extraordinarily rare and unique works of
art. This is his passion.
"I hope [my art] allows people to think. I want to inspire them - make
them contemplate something. I want to give people something to consider
that they don't see on a daily basis. I want to help them think and use
their imagination." Contact Mr. Mere.
