July 20th, 1988      Wednesday

I've started already on the new work I've decided to entitle, The Quality of Mercy. In it I depict the plight of the homeless, drug addicts, the poor and prostitution. I have also shown the figure of death and the spread of AIDS. Yet central to this is the figure of Christ, bound. And the bondage here I have shown by the plight we find our fellow human beings in here on earth, but unconquerable  is the God given qualities we all have of care, love, and understanding. I've solidified the basic structure, color yet I've to decide, that'll come. I need some time, just a little, to absorb the idea, examine it. No hurry here.
