Artist Bio

Omari Ra - born November, 1960 in Jamaica and educated at the Jamaica School of Art. Omari Ra has been painting full time since his graduation in 1983. His work, which is highly individualistic and vivid in imagery and colour sense, has attracted much comment both locally and abroad.

His first solo exhibition took place in Berne, Switzerland in 1985 while in the same year he was represented locally with eleven other young artists in Jamfest '85.
