Maya Lin lives in a world of pixel-perfect precision. As a rising digital illustrator, she views her high-tech tablet as the ultimate weapon and the future of art. Leo Vance lives in a world of raw texture and tradition. A brilliant but brooding oil painter, he believes true art requires a physical canvas, mixed oils, and a piece of the artist's soul.
When a chaotic booking glitch forces these two fiercely stubborn creatives to share the most coveted studio at the Verona Creative Hub, sparks fly instantly. Maya thinks Leo is an arrogant dinosaur stuck in the past; Leo thinks Maya is a soulless technician shortcutting her way to success. They draw a literal line down the middle of the room, determined to ignore each other for the next thirty days.
But when a career-making gallery exhibition is announced with a massive catch—artists must enter as pairs and submit a single, hybrid piece that seamlessly blends digital and traditional mediums—the ultimate truce is called.
