"In the moonlight"
Magic marker on paper
8 1/2" x 11"

Text:

and I
can see
to write

Hurricane goddess
The spiritual beliefs of the Taíno,
pre-Columbian Indians and the
original inhabitants of the Caribbean,
included the long-armed hurricane
goddess Guabancex and her twin
helpers, thunder and wind. This
drawing incorporates Taino
iconography found on shells,
stones, and pottery.
