Haiti Drum Art

One of the unique forms of art in Haiti is drum art.  Fifty-five gallon drums are opened, flattened and objects are cut out with hammer/chisel by hand.  Here is the latest one that I just received today.  This piece shows H A I T I being held up by children as they also hold hands.  This has immediately become one of my favorites.  Our house is filled with so many choice pieces that we have found over the years or have been give to us as gifts.   I love the creativity of the Haitian people.  This is just one more example of their incredible art.
