The Winsom Foundation's Paint Up A Storm at the Cayo Welcome Center drew a crowd as the artists came up with their unique designs.  

Albums: Kids, Karen, Jamual, Gilvano, Illona, Joris.  

"For the professional artists they were each given a surprise box ...  Each box contained one kind of item which they were told they had to create a costume for their assistant ...  All morning was spent doing it with help from the audience....  the designs was then showcased on the stage with the artist giving their concept for the design....  Some times designs was changed half way through the process because it was not working... Sadly some of the Artist did not show up but the ones that was there I think had fun as they were taken out of their comfort zone of their own art form......"
