About Us

For the past 58 years, I have done Art. I have worked and studied in Germany and France (1957 thru 1959).

The Massaii Art Institute was formed to record, display, and instruct thru the medium of art, as many as possible, the verbal stories past down thru generations of the union between African slaves and indigenous people in America, North, Central and South as told to me. Credentialed with the San Francisco Arts Commission as a street artist (1991).

The Massaii Art Institute Inc. based in Southern California was formed in 1997 a non-profit organization # C2068637 formed to record, display and instruct thru the medium of art and to conduct seminars and display one of kind hand crafted art objects. Regarding my gallery, it is located on the fenced property which also contains my studio and residence (approx. 1 mile from the connecting frwys #710, #91 and #105) Los Angeles County. The hours of viewing Mon. thru Sat. 9am to 3pm. A minimum of 30 tapastries are offered for viewing and available for sales to museums, galleries and collectors. Underwritten by Dun&Bradstreet.
