Gilbert has created images for large-scale outdoor sculpture installations in her Yonkers, NY "Yoho" studio. These images, along with figurative painting, are the backbone of this new book. Her ever-expanding vision emerges from reading, travels, interest in history, especially archaeology, and studying the work of contemporary artists. With a new found mastery of her Epson printer, this has resulted in this first published book.
