Dready is a character and a style of art created by West Indian (Jamaican born) artist Shane Aquart. Since its beginnings in 2004, Dready art has evolved from just images of that character, to a style of art embodying the colours, humor and style - "dready's bold graphic technique, a style that has become immediately recognizable to viewers of his art". Images of stingrays and turtles of houses and cars and boats in the Dready style are just as common as Dready himself. Yet, Dready remains the iconic center of the art. The people in Grand Cayman now recognize Dready as a staple of the community through various charitable endeavours. Projects include fund raising for the Central Caribbean Marine Institute and the Jamaica Environment Trust.〔(Cayman Compass News article, accessed online March 7, 2008 )〕

Dready art first began appearing on the scene in late 2004, making its move from doodle to a rendered postcard design and the testing of images; then onto T shirts in barbados, grenada, cayman and jamaica in late 2005 and bags and baseball caps in 2006. dready, as a business though, wasn't launched until January 2008
