One painter, eight cities around the world.

Once a month for a year, a hand-styled letter arrives in your mailbox — a complete story set entirely in the city you pick, told in the voice of the same traveling painter. Each one carries a wax seal and the next chapter.

What arrives

A letter, hand-written style, in fine stationery every month — signed by the author.

What it tells

Twelve letters, one city, one complete story — the same painter, seen a different way each time: her nerve in Paris, her patience in London, her grief in Provence.

What it becomes

At year’s end, keep every letter in a kraft-paper memory box — aged and travel-worn, printed with old photographs of steamships, train platforms, and the cities themselves — like a shoebox of memories from a trip long past.

Postcards from the road

Choose your city

Eight cities. Eight complete stories. Same painter, every time.

Each collection is its own twelve-letter year, set entirely in one place — pick the one whose theme finds you.

Write back

Send the painter a memory. She’ll write it into the next letter.

On the personalization tier, you send a small memory, a person, or a place you love. A detail from it is woven into your next letter.
