A watercolor painting depicting drummers, musicians, and crowd at a traditional festival in an African village in Guinea, West Africa. "Le Maitre à Sangbarala" is a portrait of world-renowned djembe player, Famoudou Konaté, with whom I studied music for many years — he has become a mentor for me over the years during my yearly sojourns to West Africa. Famoudou and I have remained friends and I visited with him most recently on my 2014 and 2016 trips. The painting, completed in 2006, depicts a festival taking place in the Kouroussa region where we would often visit. It is based on much research and numerous studies/sketches of people from the village, and painstakingly composed to illustrate this festival and the personalities of the village. The painting is approximately 20” x 30” on Arches watercolor paper, with 4 deckled edges. Painting will ship flat and well protected in a cardboard box.

I’m an artist, musician, and writer, and I get a lot of my inspiration from my adventures traveling to interesting places. I’m passionate about anthropology, which is to say, I want to understand the human experience and this thing that we call culture. My explorations into the diverse cultures of the world have inspired me to make artwork and music about the people and places I have seen. I’ve also written and illustrated a book about my time living in West Africa, where I studied traditional music styles over the past decade and a half. At my core, I’m an artist, and have been ever since I picked up a pencil and started drawing at age five. That started a life-long journey that has led me down some unique paths in life. There have been some detours off the path — or perhaps those side roads were really part of it. In any case, art has always been there in some form. I’m rediscovering it again, and committing to making it a full-time endeavor.
