Synopsis

What does it take to become a great artist? Is it simply a matter of unlocking our innate talent, or is it something developed through training and experience? What obstacles must you overcome, especially if you are a woman in a male dominated art world? This novel explores those questions through the story of a woman who grew up in rural Texas during the Great Depression. Although suffering the trauma of poverty, childhood abuse, and marriage to an unfaithful and domineering husband, she dedicates her life to becoming an artist. But that road is far from easy. Ultimately it will mean leaving her family and her home in Texas and venturing on a journey filled with many obstacles to overcome. This novel, told by the owner of a prestigious New York art gallery, will follow the life of this courageous woman in her quest to reach greatness as an artist and overcome her past.
