Erzulie is the Goddess of Love in the Haitian religion, VouDou. She has a special place among the many devotees who gather every year at Saut D'Eau to honor her. The Saut D'Eau waterfall descends over 100 feet, among vines, shallow pools, and mossy ledges. Devotees bathe in the water and ask for blessings and healings from Erzulie. Erzulie is sometimes compared to the Virgin Mary of the Christian religion.

In this painting of Erzulie, I made her larger than life, because she is a Goddess. In one hand is a dove (for Spirit); in the other hand is a serpent, representing knowledge.
