Elizabeth Catlett (b. April 15, 1915. –d. April 2, 2012) was an African-American graphic artist and sculptor best known for her depictions of the African-American experience in the 20th century, which often had the female experience as their focus. She was born and raised in Washington, D.C. to parents working in education, and was the grandchild of freed slaves. It was difficult for a black woman in this time to pursue a career as a working artist, and Catlett devoted much of her career to teaching. However, a fellowship awarded to her in 1946 allowed her to travel to Mexico City, where she would work with the Taller de Gráfica Popular for twenty years and head the sculpture department of the Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas. In the 1950s, her main means of artistic expression shifted from print to sculpture, though she would never give up the former.
Her work is a mixture of abstract and figurative in the Modernist tradition, with influence from African and Mexican art traditions. According to the artist, the main purpose of her work is to convey social messages rather than pure aesthetics. While not very well known to the general public, her work is heavily studied by art students looking to depict race, gender and class issues. During her lifetime, Catlett received many awards and recognitions including membership in the Salón de la Plástica Mexicana, the Art Institute of Chicago Legends and Legacy Award, honorary doctorates from Pace University and Carnegie Mellon and the International Sculpture Center’s Lifetime Achievement Award in contemporary sculpture.
New York is a state in the Northeastern United States and is the United States' 27th-most extensive, fourth-most populous, and seventh-most densely populated state. New York is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south and Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border in the Atlantic Ocean with Rhode Island, east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Quebec to the north and Ontario to the west and north. The state of New York, with an estimated 19.8 million residents in 2015, is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City, the state's most populous city and its economic hub.
With an estimated population of nearly 8.5 million in 2014, New York City is the most populous city in the United States and the premier gateway for legal immigration to the United States. The New York City Metropolitan Area is one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world. New York City is a global city, exerting a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment, its fast pace defining the term New York minute. The home of the United Nations Headquarters, New York City is an important center for international diplomacy and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world, as well as the world's most economically powerful city. New York City makes up over 40% of the population of New York State. Two-thirds of the state's population lives in the New York City Metropolitan Area, and nearly 40% live on Long Island. Both the state and New York City were named for the 17th century Duke of York, future King James II of England. The next four most populous cities in the state are Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse, while the state capital is Albany.

I commend VA State Senator Jill Vogel for exploring her spiritual existence. I met her at the Wat Lau Buddhavong in Catlett VA in June of 2012 while she was visiting the Royalty that had come in from Thailand. I think that it was a wonderful expression to show that there are some members of the Government that embrace a more spiritual existence over a Religious one. I believe that she should continue her experience by visiting an original Temple in Thailand so that she can get a feeling for the difference between living the Lifestyle and the Religious version of Buddhism that has been reformed by Christianity in the USA. True Meditation is done in silent meditation and now with a Prayer. It requires extreme focus and effort on the behalf of the meditator and will have a lasting effect...

To have and to hold, to satisfy your soul
An everlasting choice, a strong inner voice
Do you know that your dreams always come true?
Do you ever dream about me?
Dancer in the dark, made a last remark
Elegant and strong, I know where you belong
Do you know that you always shine a light?
Do you know that you're mine, all mine?
It's in the way that you move
You're my vanity
It's in the way that you smile
Sweet serenity
I didn't come here to beg
But I must surrender
I didn't come here to steal
But I'm your offender
To have and to hold, to satisfy your soul
An everlasting choice, a strong inner voice
Do you know that you always shine a light?
Do you know that you're mine, all mine?
It's in the way that you move
You're my vanity
It's in the way that you smile
