Overview

In this luminous debut collection, New York-based artist and poet Ray Testa offers a deeply personal meditation on life, love, and legacy. Across thirty evocative poems, each paired with a carefully selected image of his original artwork, Ray invites readers to experience a profound harmony of language and visual art. This volume is as much a work of art as it is a book. It was created not only to be read but to be revisited, displayed, and cherished--an heirloom-quality collection designed to last. With themes spanning from memory and nature to loss, gratitude, and the everyday moments that define us, these poems offer both intimacy and universality. The accompanying paintings--ranging from expressive oil works to quiet, abstract impressions--complement the poetry with emotional resonance and visual storytelling. Together, they create a multisensory experience that speaks to the soul. This is the first in a planned trilogy of poetic reflections, each weaving together words and imagery to honor the human journey. Whether reading quietly alone or sharing with others, this book is a meaningful companion for those who seek beauty, truth, and inspiration in both art and life. Ideal for lovers of poetry, collectors of original art, or anyone drawn to creative expression and emotional authenticity, A Journey in Words and Images is a timeless keepsake for the heart and home.

Author Information

Ray Testa is a New York-based artist, poet, and former business executive who embraced his lifelong creative passions after retiring from a 45-year career in global finance, with leadership roles in New York, London, and Mumbai. Blending vivid imagery with emotional depth, Ray's poetry explores themes of love, memory, nature, and identity--often paired with his original oil painting and photography. His work bridges urban energy and quiet reflection, revealing the beauty found in everyday moments. This debut collection is the first in a trilogy and reflects Ray's belief in the power of art and language to connect generations. When not painting or writing, Ray enjoys traveling with his wife, Karen, spending time with his daughters and grandchildren, and capturing life through his lens.
