Below is a blurb about the artist that I snatched from the internet:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAlongside art, Jean Baptiste is also a highly esteemed vodou priest. He was identified as a priest back in 1991 and has been conducting ceremonies ever since. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVodou flags have a long history in Haitian vodou culture. Traditionally, vodou flags were used to decorate the site where a ceremony was taking place or were worn on the backs of participants in a vodou dance. Today, these amazing pieces of art are being used as decoration and are displayed on people’s walls. One flag can take anywhere from 2-6 weeks to make and Jean Baptiste is a leader in innovative designs.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eSome of Jean Baptiste’s pieces go for thousands of dollars to wealthy tourists and art collectors who come specifically to Haiti to buy his art.
