"Periwinkle Eyes" published in Art Times!
A couple of years ago, I had a story accepted by a publication with a really long lead-time. The magazine is Art Times. The story is "Periwinkle Eyes." And the publication time is now! I got the comp copies in the mail today.
"Periwinkle Eyes" is out in the March issue. I'm really jazzed about this because it's my first print publication. Unfortunately, it's distributed by subscription only outside of the Northeast (New York and the like). If you're in that area, pick up a copy and take a look!
Excerpt:
For our first session, she wore a white dress. Even if she hadn't told me, I think I would have guessed. The sound of her movements was stiffer, more abrupt, than when we’d first met. I link that sound to the color white, but maybe she was just shy. I feared she was a skeptic who thought my paintings were popular only for their novelty value.
“Isn’t it the most amazing thing, darling, the man who painted this is blind!”
