education at the Maryland Institute College of Art, where he received

including Barry Levinson's "Avalon."
He is the youngest honorary member of Art 2000, a national multi-cultural visual
arts association. Among his convictions is educating young artists. He is the
founder of "The African American Youth Art Exhibition" which has been sponsored
in Baltimore annually since 1990. "My goal is to provide and outlet for young artists
to express themselves, as well as enlighten them on the importance of art
in our culture."
Admirers often site rhythm, movement, and unity, as favorite elements in his work.
Poncho's unique style combines past and present art stylization to create sense of
realism, mysticism, and beauty, which gives his art unversal appeal.
