Portrait on Paris Postcard #2. 4.75" x 6.5"
(Click Picture)

This is the 2nd in the "Paris Postcard" series. I was looking over my bookshelf a bunch of papers shoved between a couple books. Among other things there were about 15 postcards that were of different photos taken in Paris during the 1920's. This one in particular is called "Arc de Triomphe". All the postcards are very Paris and you can hear an accordian playing and it all makes the Michigan winter seem all that much colder. With that.. Enjoy!

Keemo ~ I am amazed at your artistic depth. I love Paris, and this would be an excellent art installation. Of course, it would not be postcard size -- (smile). The juxtaposition (being unique in that it is not side by side, but forward ~ backward) . . . or better said as a step forward and then backward in time or vice-versa a step backward and then forward in time depending upon how the viewer sees the art piece and how it is internalized.

This artpiece is like seeing through a peep-hole in time. The modern day view (meaning the top image or front-foward view) could be from Paris as well, or from a place on the other side of the globe overlaid to jar the mind and expand insight.

Keemo, I am planning to study your artwork in more depth. Do add your thoughts on what frame of mind you were in when you created "the 2nd in the "Paris Postcard" series.

And, I'd also be interested in knowing if you keep a journal of your thoughts as you create your artpieces. Do tell...

Blessings in abundance as you continue to touch us and the world with your ART.
