Adrian Camps-Campins was born in Trinidad and is an artist with an unusual interest. He has spent the last 25 year digging into Trinidad and Tobago's past, turning the results into a series of bold original acrylic paintings, executed in the naive style, which are then made into historical greeting cards with accompanying photographs and texts.

Two of his paintings have been made into postage stamps, the first depicting the visit of Columbus in 1498 and one of the most recent "The University of Woodford Square", showing Dr Eric Williams addressing a public rally.

He has exhibited at the Meridian International Center in Washington and at the Salon of Le Grand Palais in Paris.

In 1993 one of his designs was selected for use as a UNICEF card- the first from a native of Trinidad.
