The fourth coming of Gallery Barrington published: Friday September 29, More persons sang Watson's praises that night, including his friend and art collector Wycliffe Bennett, who confessed that the first painting he ever owned was a portrait of his wife Hazel that 'Barry' gave him as a gift in According to Mr. Bennett, Mr. Watson's works reveal an affinity for beautiful Jamaican women, and upon inspection of the pieces on display, that affinity became evident.

Among the pieces are some paintings that were shown at the first Gallery Barrington at Union Square in Cross Roads almost four decades ago, and at this the fourth instalment of Gallery Barrington, Watson still displays his understanding and appreciation of the Jamaican world through his art. Keynote speaker William Clarke, the president and CEO of the Bank of Nova Scotia Jamaica, gave a new perspective on the future of Jamaican art as he spoke extensively on its untapped economic potential.

Art is still underexploited "Despite the outstanding work of people like Barry Watson, art is still underexploited as a tool for national and social development," he said. He pointed out that, "Jamaica is well known for the performing arts, but we have not begun to exploit the visual arts as a tool for economic and social deve-lopment. For the remainder of the evening, guests gushed at the artistry of 'Barry's' hand, which included a selection of his paintings and sculptures.
