Some lovely use of scenery too. John knows how to ground a reader in the world he's creating. Again, no small feat when it comes to short stories, where you can only borrow a reader's time for a short while. Excellent, highly recommend." - R L Conner The Patron and the ArtistA young boy finds salvation in a magic painting. A dark tale with an unexpected twist.
