You pierce my soul - Original Collage inspired by Jane Austen

Mixed media on canvas, signed at the back

25 W x 29.9 H x 1.5 cm

This collage was inspired by Captain Wentworth's love letter to Anne Elliot from one of my favourite novels by Jane Austen "Persuasion". I love how the letter instantly changed things for Anne, who went from complete hopeless devastation to euphoric happiness. 
I used pink letters, playful paint splashes and the sense of secret obsession to convey the power of Captain's and Anne's love.
