BEAUTY is MYSTERY.


Marisol Baez reclining within an elusive spirit of a beauty impossible to capture, but possible to praise and reflect upon. She is a Native woman (Taino) activist I met a couple months ago on Jay Winter Night Wolf's radio show about the march she was a part of. . . - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories (Sept. 2016)


"There is an elusive spirit to beauty poets capture similar in a way photographers can engage the senses to see what can move very fast from a base sense of a woman into an electric change and challenge to the sense of where the lines lie between beauty and character. How this relates to power is beyond being able to show strength. Spirit within talks to its attributes in lovely or beautiful ways as the mystic may say, or Beauty embodies what Spirit needs to see within Creation. Either way it is a mystery how beauty is to beautiful what intelligence is to consciousness. Consciousness raised by the spirit of a woman is potent and able to subjugate the feeling of being overwhelmed when thinking takes place and one discovery is that 'seeing' is reflection." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories (October 19, 2016)
