Haitian Art by LaFortune Felix

LaFortune was born in the Artibonite region in 1933

He was an initiated Houngan and decorated the outside of his Temple with images of the Lwa.

One day Pierre Monosiet, Director of the Museum of Haitian Art at the College of St. Pierre happened by and subsequently brought him supplies and bought his paintings.

He signs his early paintings "Pont Sonde" and his later ones " St. Marc", where he lives now.

Felix is in a class of his own, or perhaps shares it with Hyppolite and Andre Pierre
