The Painter's Wife
An affair, a canvas, and the truth that lies beneath the surface.
Some stories begin with a single brushstroke.
The colors were always bright around Camille - brilliant splashes of vermillion, turquoise, and gold - until the day she found herself staring into the center of a canvas, unable to paint a single line.
To the world, Camille Calder was the muse, the socialite wife of Julian Calder, a celebrated painter whose works hung in Manhattan's finest galleries. But behind every vibrant canvas was a woman whose secrets bled into the paint, whose silence spoke louder than applause.
In the quiet hush of an art studio, truths wait to be discovered - and sometimes, the only way to find them is to break the rules, risk the affair, and follow the path of passion wherever it leads.
This is Camille's story. The story of how a wife became an artist, a secret lover, and a woman finally unafraid to see the truth on her own canvas.
