The Story: “Standing There” I don’t know why exactly but I enjoy seeing someone put together clothing that steps up and out of everyday life and begins to speak to the gods of art. I remember being in Paris writing, I was very young, and I saw a woman get out of a taxi. Her outfit was a rich yellow, everything right down to the designs on her shoes were so perfectly matched and coordinated, it was like getting hit by a force of some kind. The saying, “Took my breath away,” is actually a real thing. The whole experience lasted only a moment, as she exited the taxi and entered a building. Yet, Here I am these many, many years later telling you about her. Even though I never met her, or ever knew her name, I still dedicate my Collection of painted poems to her in a quiet, thankful way. She taught me that there is indeed, walking – talking art. ____________ Profiles of Quiet Contemplation Collection: "Standing There" holds the figure in eternal presence.
