| Out of Africa. I re-visited Tenwek Hospital in Kenya, East Africa to deliver two dental units and a portable dental chair to the mission hospital. I recorded my impressions of this land in 40 simple ink and watercolor sketches. I was attending dentist at the hospital in 1993 and 1994 where I earlier began work on my book, "An African Journal." |
