For some reason Elizabeth Goudge and her book &#8220;a child from the sea&#8221; came to mind. \u00a0My father had mentioned an author who came to Guernsey as a child and he did mention that he hid a lady in his painting but after 20 years I had forgotten until I started studying his work. \u00a0 I now believe that he also hid the story of the &#8220;White Witch&#8221; in it too as there is also a very pale hidden lady in it.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\">Here is a link to the painting:\u00a0<a id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_14133\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.google.com\/site\/kwhillpaintings\/paintings\/mystery-paintings-2\" target=\"_blank\">kwhillpaintings\/paintings\/mystery-paintings-2<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The photograph is of greatly reduced quality because I am cautious about putting things on the Web, but I can supply a much better quality one if required. \u00a0 The painting is the second one down and the images are not easy to see, particularly because of the reduced quality, but if someone was prepared to spend a few minutes looking then more and more begging to be seen.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\">There may be other stories by Elizabeth Goudge in other paintings but I have not studied many yet.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\">I hope you find the painting interesting.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\">Yours sincerely<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\">Christopher Hill<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1419068993239_2889\" dir=\"ltr\">(son of ken Hill)<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Mrs Gaudin, I have been viewing your website about Elizabeth Goudge recently as I have discovered my father, who died in May this year, was a secret fan of her stories.
