The book that stirred me deeply was Abraham Verghese's Cutting For Stone.
One of the exhibitions that had a huge effect on me was "A Visionary Modernist" by Sudanese artist Ibrahim El-Salahi.
When I read the following words by El-Salahi on one of the text panels, I was stopped in my tracks:
The subjects are looking at and through me, as if trying to remind me, through their perfect silence, of what I had failed to see.
With that, I'd like to share some of my new work. (Please excuse the repeats.)

Amazing. You did it again.

One of the things I really admire about you, Gloria, is that you take the time to put these things together. That's the part I usually fall down on: oh, sure, the pictures get taken, but then they just go into the air, as it were. I guess follow-through is not one of my long suits, whereas you have the whole package. A couple of my favorites in this series were the shoes and the man with the brassieres. Great work! Marti
Stunning work. Looks like it was a very good journey.
