"Little one, whoever you are," she explains, there are children all over the world who may look different, live in different homes and different climates, go to different schools, and speak in different tongues but all children love, smile, laugh, and cry. Their joys, pain, and blood are the same, "whoever they are, wherever they are, all over the world." Leslie Staub's oil paintings feature bright matte colors for the landscapes and portraits, in gold borders, set with jewels and molded from plaster and wood. These frames echo the rhythm of the written phrases. She has created an art gallery that represents in color, shape, and texture, of all the peoples of the world.
