Hurricane Coming!

By A.Vonn Hartung

A giclee print of the original painting El Yunque, Protector from Hurricanes by A.Vonn Hartung. I painted this work the afternoon that a Hurricane was approaching Puerto Rico. I painted until the wind blew the painting off my easel a second time. It was a horrendous hurricane and completely wiped out all the trees. You can see the mountain El Yunque in the distance, where the Taino Indians believed their gods lived and protected the island from hurricanes. It is one of the most visited tourist sites in Puerto Rico.
