I wish I was a photograph

tucked into the corners of your wallet

I wish I was a photograph

you carried like a future in your pocket

I wish I was that face you show to strangers

when they ask you where you come from

 

- Andrea Gibson (exerpt from "Photograph")

 

things to take into consideration:

 

i am striving (starving) to better my (he) art

 

i write, i take pictures and i travel. i meet people, i talk to strangers, i try to improve my heart, mind and soul daily with knowledge and inspiration and curiosity. i am madly in love, i have found my soulmate, i practice lucid dreaming. i read books, i keep a journal full of quotes and i'm always looking for beauty in the midst of destruction. i am not perfect and i never will be. i am everything, i am nothing and i am far from done here.

Juliette is a modern day beat poet - a traveling explorer with camera in hand. Her photos take a slice of life and make it beautiful!

Ive know oolie since she was 17 or 18, and she has always been the coolest person to hang out with and always intriguing and eye catching. Though she may not realize this;) She is very talented at writing and photography, she is very beautiful of body and mind and will always keep you on your toes;)

oh Juliette...to only to have known her a very short while, I feel like we've known each other a long time. She is a breathe of fresh air with a sweet soul and it seems we have so much in common. I see us being friends for a long time. And, how psyched am I that she lives so close?? NOLA trip is in the works... I walk through her stream and get lost. She is honest and creative and allows us in with every photo that she takes and this is something that I like that a lot. I also like how she intertwines her writing with her shots and tells a story. Another thing i love is how she doesn't over edit.. She keeps it simple. I've looked at some of her images multiple times and would gladly come back and look more, as well as recommend her to others!! Please check her stuff out! You won't be sorry! Thank you, Juliette, for walking into my life!

(her stream is an art zoo where all the animals are still free). oolie is one of those artists that is raw and timeless, classic and fresh - all in one. i have always enjoyed her stream as one of my favorites. i love that her art is so simple and unique, not over-edited and photoshopped -- but true, real talent that is hard to come by these days. i never get tired of coming back to look if there's new photographs from her. her writing, her spirit, her passion and her photographs make up pieces of one of the best people i've ever met in my whole life. i'm blessed.

Juliette - truly an amazing writer, blows me away every time I read her - fantasticly fun view of the world as shown by her photographs - I miss her terrible - my 'other' daughter - but she was born to explore the world, and I am so excited that she is doing it!!
