Let's make this birthday one to remember.

85 years old (Born on February 18, 1940)

Happy Birthday, Aminah! May your day be filled with joy, laughter, and perhaps a few twigs and splashes of mud—after all, you've turned these humble materials into masterpieces that have dazzled audiences from Columbus to Tacoma. Your creativity has shown us the beauty hidden in leather scraps and earthy textures; who knew nature's leftovers could become museum treasures?

Your incredible exhibitions at renowned places like the Brooklyn Museum remind us how timeless art can truly be—even when crafted from sticks or clay. Here's wishing you another year full of inspiration (and maybe fewer muddy footprints indoors). Cheers!
