I've been creating art since the early 1970's in a variety of mediums, and for many years art and music were the all-consuming forces in my daily life.  

During the past 20 years, even though music remained a daily practice, art pretty much took a back seat to other creative endeavors.  Those years were filled with teaching nature camps and classes for children and youth, teaching sustainable gardening classes for adults, designing private and public landscapes, writing an "as-told-to" autobiography of my friend and  brother Foday Musa Suso, restoring and managing the Arivaca Dancehall with Uno, and spearheading the Arivaca Pollinator Pathway project!

Early this year however, I was very inspired by the process of preparing a retrospective show of my art from the 1980's and 90's, which was then hung at the Arivaca Dancehall in February 2024.  It featured work from my personal collection, including acrylic and oil paintings, ceramic and paper masks, sculptures and other 3D art.  Below are a few of the pieces that were exhibited.

Since the art show, I've reorganized my art studio (whew!) and I am delighted to be spending time there each day, imagining and creating. 

Eventually this page will feature more photos of my past and current paintings, sculpture, and jewelry...  so stay tuned!
