Jamaican, USA-based sculptor from a family of artists: Barrington Watson, Watson's father, was an esteemed artist in his own right, his three sons are also artists, and Basil Watson's son, Kai, is working in the studio he shares with his father in Georgia, USA. The Watson family can be seen as part of the Windrush generation, having moved here in 1952. The family moved back to Jamaica in 1962 when Basil was four years old. When he was in his 40s he migrated to the US.
The post-nominals are Jamaican honours: Order of Jamaica and Order of Distinction with rank of Commander.
