A while back, I featured Audrey Eclectic as a Friday Favorite. I loved her Jane Eyre mug, and found inspiration for my writing in her painting, “An Old-Fashioned Romance.” I nurtured a little fantasy that Heather, the artist behind Audrey Eclectic, might paint something for The Revenant. When I approached her with the idea, she was very enthusiastic. Hooray!
I was overjoyed by the results:
I love Willie’s wispy hair and light smattering of freckles. You can see Seminary Hall and various students in the background (including a certain forbidden boy). Heather featured the painting on her blog, and you’ll find a much better photo there.
Heather also created a postcard for me:
Here’s the front with the lovely Victorian border.
And the back, featuring one of my photos of Seminary Hall.
*happy sigh*
To see more of Heather’s work, including holiday-themed art and greeting cards, please visit the Audrey Eclectic page at Etsy. To learn more about her inspirations and latest projects, follow her blog. I’m so delighted that this talented Oklahoma artist enjoyed my book and was willing to create such a beautifully folksy piece for me!
