Words on a Page can Drench the Soul

$1,300.00

This is an original acrylic painting on a 36”x48” gallery wrapped canvas

“I should have told you… taught you that a letter isn’t always just a letter. Words on the page can drench the soul. If only you knew.” — Jessica Brockmole, Letters from Skye

This piece was completely inspired by the sweeping love story told solely through letters in my favorite book, Letters from Skye, by Jessica Brockmole. I stumbled upon this book in 2015 before a trip to Scotland and the very Isle of Skye where one of the characters lives, and I was so moved by it. Ten years later, during a reread, a painting began to take shape in my head; a painting of love, loss, letters, and the distance in between.
