Eliza, your writing is so alive and beautiful. This: “Her paintings suggest pressed ferns, leaves, and flowers. They evoke for me life and death preserved, celebrated… the translucent skin of my mother’s aged hands.” 🥰 thank you for sharing. 🙏🏼
What a beautiful love letter to Dorothea! The more you repeat her name, the more loving the story is. I really like your style, happy I discovered you, Eliza!
