Mission Earth Volume 1
Gerry grew up steeped in the images of religious icons and imagery; painted statues, holy cards, patterned church walls, glowing candles and the lingering smells of incense.
She reabsorbed the influence again and again on her many trips and stays in the American south west and Mexico, always making churches, missions, and schools her focus.
Gerry explored the the religious-iconic nature of life, often with the jewel-like qualities of medieval miniatures.
Gerry was an ever-evolving woman, questioning, challenging, immersed in art and always on an intellectual and spiritual quest. Her life, other than art, centered on her friends and the principles of a simple and honest life.

Soltan Gris confesses his crimes as The Invaders Plan Mission Earth. This is his confession—our world through his eyes. Sinister. Satirical. Wickedly funny.
Earth does not exist.…
Or so they want you to believe.
They are the Voltarians of Voltar—an empire 110 planets strong. And they are headed straight for us. The scheming Soltan Gris tells all.
“This particular target is known as Blito-P3—the local inhabitants call it Earth. It is a humanoid planet.… It lies on our invasion route into this galaxy.” —Captain Tars Roke, Mission Earth
