Currently he is doing an assortment of jewelry depicting the split twig animals found in the caves of the Grand Canyon and petroglyph/pictrograph figures of significance to the Hopi people

His books of poetry include Silent Winds, Poetry of One Hopi, Ascending the Reed and Drifting Through Ancestor Dreams. A book of his selected poems was published in France in early 2001.

Ramson is what those in the trading business call a “hard-core” traditional katsina doll carver. He is featured in the Johnathon Day book Traditional Hopi Kachinas.

Ramson carves his Kachinas the old way using obsidian as tool to work the cottonwood root. He uses natural pigments in all of his painting.
