That is awesome talent and it should be harnessed to both his and Antigua’s rebound both in recognition and financial ways
I need that artist phone number this is mines 268.4643309 if any body know him tell him please call me
This is amazing. I will hope this young man reach higher heights and expose the talents our beloved country holds.
This young man is innately gifted – kudos to his efforts🙏🏼. I hope he gets the opportunity to further develop this talent through some sort of institution devoted to the visual arts. I wish I had the opportunity to do so, so many years ago…though I’ve been satisfied with my career as a teacher. I made sure my daughter pursued her talent up to her university degree, (as did my nephew) and I’m nurturing my young grandson to follow his creative urges. It seems it runs in the family…
WOW!!!! With a blue inked pen? Amazing talent….
I would love a portrait done with me and my children as well .. this artist needs to put his number out there

His name is Lem Arts on tic tok, your welcome.
Fantastic job!! Didn’t realize Antigua has such great talent….. The gov’t should invest in young man’s talent in the torist industry…
It’s a way of diversifying our tourism product
What true political leaders should do is to make sure that they identify the creative talents in their communities/constituencies rather than only help those who sit and wait in their office begging
These are dozens of programs in North America and the EU and UK for young talents such as this young man.
