Art School Wizards: & The Cursed Canvas

Eleven-year-old James Bluewater has always loved to paint - but when his passion awakens a powerful magic within him, his life changes forever. Orphaned and misunderstood by his relatives who see art as nothing more than a useless hobby, James is shocked to receive an invitation to the legendary Academy of Arcanic Arts: a hidden school where young wizards harness their creative powers to weave magic through art.

At the Academy, James quickly discovers that painting and spellcasting are one and the same - and that his parents' mysterious disappearance is linked to a dark secret buried deep within the school: The Cursed Canvas, a living painting with the power to trap souls and reshape reality itself.

Together with his new friends - the courageous Maevry Moon, clever Rae Sunshine, quiet Malachi Putter, and brilliant Claire Bismuth - James must unravel the haunting mystery of the Cursed Canvas before it awakens fully and consumes everything they hold dear.

Art School Wizards & The Cursed Canvas is a thrilling, magical adventure about friendship, self-discovery, and the power of creativity. Perfect for readers who believe in the magic within themselves - and in the stories art can tell.
