James Abbott Whistler - "Caprice in Purple and Gold No. 2 The Golden ScreenHere is my flash fiction (55 words) inspired by this Whistler painting.
Thank you for reading :) I guess I'm a romantic through and through. Happy Friday!
Hours poured over two untested lives as the feared reality slowly took hold. Clutching silent Akina with urgency and fire, the painter's heart broke away. “I must follow my Master and become more of what I am.” As the morning broke, a numb Akina abandoned herself to his forgotten paintings, hoping to feel him again.
