Brent Malone was called to express what he saw of his world through the medium of the visual arts, and he heeded that call with all the integrity of the blessed or the mad. He put down the nets that had been woven for him, and he studied fine art when for a Bahamian to do so in this country was lunacy. He lived the life of the artist, on a limb, taking risks that were neither necessary nor prudent when he could live the tried-true life of a shopkeeper. As an artist, he looked without fear at himself and the world around him, and obeyed the divine call. And in so doing, he gave us all ourselves
