Reflections of the Soul: That Simply Overflows represents an explosion of art that Mkatbelin began painting over three years ago. This book includes original poetry, paint, and prose all by Mkatbelin. The goal of this book is to have the reader unwind into a world of verse and image that will stimulate the senses while calming the soul. If the reader smiles or chuckles, even better. This is a collection of things burned into the memory of the artist since childhood in the rural South. It also contains one essay (prose) entitled The Day the Artist Died, which is fiction and an introduction to Mkatbelins writing style. Please look for her novel, Eye Water to Cry With, which is forthcoming.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Mkatbelin was born in the early 1960s in rural Southern Arkansas. This book is her soul poured out in paint, verse, and prose. Her images capture simple Southern life that rapidly vanished in the 1980s as her generation grew up and made their way to college. Some of those images are captured here, along with simple verse are to be enjoyed by all generations, but especially those who remember doing or seeing these things done as a child.
