Fascinated by his craft, she soon begins to help in his studio, where she finds herself drawn to the man and his world of colour and light. As she becomes part of his work, their growing intimacy spreads disruption and jealousy both within his household and beyond, fuelling a scandal that threatens to ruin them all.
