Bernadette Persaud

Bernadette Indira Persaud (born 1946) is a Guyanese painter. She is a graduate of the University of Guyana and of the Burrows School of Art in Georgetown. Her style is expressionistic, and bears some resemblance to the work of Isaiah James Boodhoo, Wendy Nanan, and Kenwyn Crichlow of Trinidad and Tobago. Persaud's best known series was titled Gentlemen in the Gardens, and depicted camouflaged soldiers in a garden setting. Persaud has also written about art for numerous Guyanese publications.
