In my article about Rose-Marie Desruisseau, I would like to include more information regarding her personal life and education. Also, I hope to write about specific paintings and awards that she received. I'd like to include descriptions of her experience at Haiti's Academy of Fine Arts.

After gaining an interest in Vodou in the 1960's, Desruisseau began to include themes of Vodou in her work.

Having studied ethnography from 1967 to 1972, Desruisseau taught at the Academy of Fine Arts in 1977.

Desruisseau's painting "Delivrance" was awarded the Jacques Roumain first prize in 1974.

Very nice! Just out of curiosity, is there any more information about specific reasons why Rose-Marie Desruisseau studied ethnography but began to do arts so suddenly in 1977? - Amy B
