(The
other day a woman wrote to me about a self-portrait
I
had posted on a photographic web site:)
wonderful
shot...i thought it was a portrait
of
you...anyway the world is strange…
the
matter which this portrait was interesting
for
me...how much this person looks like my
father…
and
this man must be that sculptor Artist…
all
artist people can be recognized by their faces…
and
obviously this man is a great painter also…
(my)
best with your shot…

(And
I replied:)
It
is a self-portrait. I am an artist. My greatness,
however,
is debatable. Thank you for your thought-
ful
comment.
(And
Sara back to me:)
obviously
I knew that...anyway my father died
and
never can express his thoughts and feeling
anymore...I
always appreciate Artist people and
Praise
their wonderful gifted talent...best with
your
wonderful Art works paintings...and Photo-
graphy
and so on…
(And
gratefully, I felt as if Sara was writing to her dearly
departed
artist father she saw in that self-portrait of me.
And I pause to wonder, does he speak through me as well?)
