Arts
Rohan grew up in Jamaica. He shares some events from his adventurous childhood and how he discovered art to be therapeutic. As a child his imagination ran wild. He found that drawing helped him to calm his mind. Obsessed with details as a child, Rohan says the more challenging the figure was the more fun it was to draw. It takes a great deal of concentration to get all the fine details. Rohan found that by focusing his mind on the detail of a painting he could channel out the ‘noise’ in his mind. Rohan Cambridge is a self-taught acrylic painter who honed his skills by watching and listening to other artists. He says, “It’s not complicated!” Rohan remembers his mentors and as he mentors other young artists he encourages … “ Believe in yourself you have the ability to become whoever you want to become. Listen to the voice within yourself and go with that. Do it with passion”. Rohan always asks himself, “What can I do to help others, what can I paint to change a mood and hopefully make it better?” He says that it’s important to be the change you want to see in the world. He strives to live by those words through his art. Inspiration is what you will get when you listen to Rohan’s story. The one thing most people don’t know about Rohan is what inspires him to create beautiful paintings. It’s a profound story.
