Just a Girl Lookin' Out the Window


I just read a great article on one of my favorite sites of all time The Cleanest Line.

The article was about this artist named Emilie Lee

I can relate to this particular paragraph of the article:

"I shot photos of her as she worked on some recent journals. There were a few moments when she forgot about my camera and just looked out the window, thinking. Here was a girl who’s been on the road, off and on for years, having all sorts of adventures and experiences. In a few days she’ll be gone again, living someplace entirely new, having all sorts of new things to deal with. In her eyes I saw that same quality that made a big impression on me years prior in Joshua Tree. I had come to photograph her and her art but it was this sort of depth I had subconsciously sought out."

It reminds me keep that sense of adventure in my life and to continue to pause and look out the window.


Great article by Jeff Johnson who is the author/photographer of this article.
