Craft in America
Storm Cycle: Markings No. 3 - X
Structures were inspected by teams from all over the USA in the early days after the storm. They marked dwellings with an "X" graphic to indicate the date, who had done the inspection, & if bodies or pets were found. These markings were full of import & visually interesting, especially those with contrasting color combinations. New Orleanians are fond of painting homes in bright tropical colors.
