Diana Y. Paul has two passions: printmaking and writing. Both require careful composing, revealing in clean muted tones and in an understated, elegant way, an illusionist's window bridging language and image. In her novels, as well as in her mixed media prints, the reader or viewer is given a chance to alter preconceived notions about our visual and emotional world. Paul's debut novel, Things Unsaid (She Writes Press 2015), is available at bookstores and on Amazon. Her art has been exhibited in California, Hawaii, and Japan. Visit her websites dianapaul.com and unhealedwound.com for more writing and art.
