Tell it Slant
Art + Reflection by Sofia Rector
“Poetry is my love language, my lament language, my way of wrapping hope around a fig tree.” -Rachel Joy Welcher
“Tell all the truth
Emily Dickinson
but tell it slant
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth’s superb surprise
As Lightning to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind-“
ABOUT THE ARTIST
SOFIA RECTOR
An artist and writer with a contemplative bent, Sofia Rector seeks to witness and add to the beauty she sees from her home in the northern suburbs of Cincinnati, Ohio. She finds joy whether exploring the outdoors with her husband and son or curling up with a good book, her journal, and a mug of black coffee or tea. Sofia shares her mixed media artwork, written reflections, and glimpses of the everyday beautiful on Instagram. She also sells original artwork and receives commission requests on Etsy.
