A Wild Tonic in the Rain

The Daisy Buchanan print that I ordered a couple of weeks ago arrived today via the post.

She is in tip-top condition after a long trip across the Atlantic. Here she is, looking even better in person than I dared hope.

Daisy Buchanan by Skies Dream Blue

Daisy Buchanan by Skies Dream Blue-“The exhilarating ripple of her voice was a wild tonic in the rain.”

Yes, she is modeled after Carey Mulligan (the star of the upcoming Baz Luhrmann film adaptation). The best part? Daisy had an unexpected traveling companion….

Jane Eyre by Skies Dream Blue

Jane Eyre by Skies Dream Blue-“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being, with an independent will; which I now exert to leave you.”

Jane Eyre! Artist Grace Hamilton threw her in, gratis. Charlotte would be proud, I think. If you love literary or cinematic art, with a strong, unique style, be sure to check out her lovely, inspiring Etsy shop here. She is a joy to deal with.

  1. How cool! I love the Jane Eyre… I’ve only started browsing Etsy recently and never even thought to look for lit-related stuff. I just did a quick search and there’s so much stuff. Uh oh…

    • Ha, maybe I should put disclaimers on all future Etsy posts! I could spend hours on there just browsing lit things, let alone everything else I am interested in….

    • Thanks! I’d love to hear what you think about it when you are done. I’ve nothing new to read by any of the sisters, but I am currently reading a bio of Emily from The British Library writers’ lives series.
