About this artist
About this artist
Castera Bazile started to work at the Centre d'art in 1944, helping Dewitt Peter's students with the necessary elements for still life subjects. He soon developed an interest in flowers and composition, and one day, he started to paint himself. He painted three of the murals in the Episcopal Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in 1951. By 1955, he took successfully part in several exhibits at the Art Center and overseas- the U.S and Europe. He won the grand prize of the Caribbean International Competition sponsored by Alcoa Corporation and the $1,000 grand prize in a Holiday Magazine contest. His figures are often outlined. In 1966, Bazile died prematurely at the peak of his career.
