Who the hell is Sheer Almshouse?
- Sheer Almshouse
- Kingston, Uptown, Jamaica
- I am a writer, photographer, moving picture director who HAD a corporate day time job, (which made me a repressed creative). Maybe that's why I developed adult acne? I am truly an undercover artistic bum who would rather shoot documentaries and write and travel on my down time and work my arse off for my clients and my business.
Be my friend !!!
