Collection: Voodoo Souls

The history of Hatian and New Orleans Voodoo Men was the inspiration behind this design. Voodoo Men, whom follow the Voodoo religion, typically are thought of as men adorned with a top hat, bearing a cross or crossbones, leather vests, bone necklaces, and of course skull face paint to honor the Voodoo legend, Baron Samedi. I wanted this piece to capture the spooky and shadowy figure of a Voodoo Man while the spirits he channels and makes tribute to are flowing out behind him as if looking over his shoulder watching all that he does. My goal with the composition was to have it all channel downward to create the shape of a V, especially in the vest.
