Happiness is Movement (detail)

The first page of this artist's book is a sketch drawn by one of Glenna's friends before he fell ill. Four horses surround the portrait of a young man with a sad expression. The inscription 'Goodbye Tim' can also be read. Glenna reproduced the sketch in this artist's book, dedicated to Tim Diamond, a young Cree who died in 2004 from complications of AIDS.
