In 1979, Fonseca started the popular Coyote series, Coyote, a native California trickster, appeared in the modern setting. For example, his Coyote in the Mission shows Coyote wearing a leather jacket with many zippers and green hightop sneakers standing against a graffiti covered brick wall in San Francisco's Mission District. Another scene features a Rousseauesque Coyote sitting in a Paris cafe.
In 1981 Fonseca presented a book, Legends of the Yosemite Miwok, compiled by Frank LaPena (Nomtipom Wintu) and Craig Bates.
The petroglyphs are taken by Fonseca especially in the Coso Range near Owens Lake, California, and petroglyphs from throughout the West and Southwest United States. In 1991 he reinterpreted Maidu's creation story using images of related petroglyphs. He began a series of paintings he called Stone Poems, which drew heavily from these petroglyphs. These series of paintings were exhibited at the Southwest Museum (Los Angeles, California) in 1989 and the Nevada Museum of Art in 2021 [4]
The artist faces the dark history of the California Gold Rush, where his work takes on a political tone. These are small rare paintings in which gold is the predominant color, with red markings representing the blood of Native Americans spilled by gold seekers. Each painting also includes minerals from California's gold country. Fonseca wrote that they are "a direct reference to the physical, emotional and spiritual genocide of the people of California". Many of these items were exhibited at the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento (1992) and the Oakland Museum as part of the large Gold Rush exhibit in 1998.
