The Vision of Aubrey Williams (Reprinted from Guyana Dreaming, April 1990)

Aubrey Williams is a painter I have consistently admired over many years. Some of his most memorable canvases create, I find, a bridge from a world of light into a web of sensation akin to music. This capacity to transmute paint into feelings that relate to other areas of sensibility - whether sculpture or music - is for me the ground of marvel and a signal of remarkable talent and gifted power.
