This painting was painted by a local of The Bahamas named Eddie Minnis. Eddie is a self-taught artist. He has worked in a number of mediums including ink, watercolors, and pastels, but he know specializes in oil painting with the palette knife. His interest in this method of painting began in 1965 and since then he has developed a unique technique. Eddie's paintings are strikingly 3-dimensional in appearance and vibrate with the bright color and light of The Bahamas.
