Artist Statement:
Howdy!
Sandpainting is an Ancient
Art known across the Globe. My
introduction to the Art was
through contact with the Dine`
of the Southwest United
States. I met Joe Ben Jr. in
Northern New Mexico in 1984
and was Honored to assist him
in searching for pigments to
complete a group of
Sandpaintings for the Indian
Fair in Santa Fe.
Along the way, i picked up
the essentials of Sandpainting
and found my niche in this
very traditional Art. My
Paintings do not reflect the
Way of the Navajo, but do use
Southwest Themes and utilise
various Gems and Minerals
which are collected by
Hand....
