Numun Foli - 18x24 watercolor
Numun Foli, from the book Djoliba Crossing: Journeys into West African Music and Culture, available here: djolibacrossing.com
Numun is the Malinké word for blacksmith, and this painting depicts the festival that celebrates the important work that the blacksmiths do in the village. This is based on my travels to Guinea, West Africa, where I studied music.
