Meet Carnival Charlie. He doesn't know the steps, but he's certainly got the moves!
Inspired by the colour, music and wonderful chaos of Trinidad Carnival, Carnival Charlie is a little character who seems to have danced his way straight onto my canvas.
I visited Trinidad in 2012, and Carnival was unforgettable. The music, the costumes, the colour and everyone simply letting go and having the time of their lives.
And that's exactly what Charlie reminds me of. Arms flying, legs going in every direction and not a care in the world.
Sometimes life is simply about letting go and enjoying the moment. And Charlie? Well, I think he's got that figured out!
