Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico was so powerful that everything was upside down after the hurricane. The experience of the feeling of a Hurricane shaking the big stone building was so terrifying.
The Category 5 Hurricane tore off most of the leaves from the tree trunks. The mountains and hills were completely brown in color due to the leaves being all torn apart. It looked like winter but there is no winter in Puerto Rico.
For a while, the Puertorican streets are all like this painting. The electricity was not restored completely for 8 months. The painting shows how normal life faded away replaced by memories of the tormenta and broken power lines.
