a traveler...
journeys bring power and love
back into you.
if you can't go somewhere,
move in the passageways of the self.
they are like shafts of light,
always changing, and you change
when you explore them.
- jelaluddin rumi

Testimonials
maguaphotos says:
"Jeanne o conceptvessel, es la personificación de la bondad, humildad y humanidad. Eso es lo primero que me trasmitió, hace ya algunos años, con sus imágenes. Ahora, con el tiempo que ha pasado, he comprobado que esas sensaciones que me inspiró, han sido corroboradas y además ha añadido a su lista de cualidades, su amabilidad y la atención personal que he recibido de ella.
Como artista, considero que lo es con letra mayúscula. Es inquieta.. siempre tiene cosas nuevas que contar y que mostrar. Su imaginación, no tiene límites y su buen hacer, tampoco.
Aquí, en esta comunidad y en la vida diaria, te considero y siempre te consideraré, mi gran amiga.
Gracias, por ser como eres, por el ánimo que me has dado siempre y por lo grandísima, elegante, artista y persona.
Te quiero mucho,
Esther."

"Jeanne does not take photos, she creates magical and stunning poems that reflects her inner beauty. I am in love with her picture world. She's a wonderful friend."
|| RAM!T || says:
"In the words of Paulo Coelho - "Your eyes show the strength of your soul." Jeanne's work has a tranquil aura around it. Which i believe can only come through a tender heart.
Never have i heard someone talk with such humbleness to someone so unknown. It is truly said, "The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. - Richard Bach"
I can't stop coming back to see her work. It has come to me as a great inspiration of thoughts.
God Bless!"
alfarman says:
"conceptvessel images are wonderful simple ..there lies there beauty and attraction...."
painter-photographer says:
"She makes luminous delicate things that
seem fragile yet still contain the
strength and beauty of multitudes. ( I love
to read the gentle responses to visitors.) A
remarkable vision containing coherence and
integrity."
