Anansi and Patoo: a Jamaican folktale. I first heard this story from a recording of Miss Lou, a Jamaican cultural advocate, singer, and folklorist. I hope you enjoyed my rendition! #caribbeanculture #folklore #jamaica #anansi #patoo

Hard to believe it's already September! As summer shifts to fall I'm shifting towards making art for myself rather than everyone else, and returning to some old writing projects. What are your creative goals for September? #caribbeanamerican #caribbeanculture #jamaica #folkart #folklore
