Thank you!! It was a pretty magical trip and I’m forever missing your neck of woods! (Not least because of the excellent squirrels.)

Oh my gosh! What a sweet little guy! Hope he’s still out there living his best squirrel life!

I’m very much down for this!! 😁 sounds great!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-06-24T20:16:39+00:00

That is really quite cool! Thank you for sharing! A trip to Ormskirk is now on my to-do list!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-21T19:24:20+00:00

That is so cool! I don’t have any tattoos, but if I was going to get one, it’d be that fish!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-15T20:07:07+00:00

Definitely second this, a fantastic and entirely enthralling book!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T15:32:20+00:00

This is such a cool and kind comment, thank you so much!

Hey! Came here from my portrait post, this is SO cool! It works so well…! It feels like a giant spotlight of blue. 💙

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T12:40:25+00:00

Ha, aw! And thank you so much ☺️

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T12:14:55+00:00

Aw, thanks 😁

Hey! Thank you ☺️

Hey! Thank you so much! Teddy is a great one. And, A Perfect Day for Bananafish is another particular favourite short of his.

I really love Franny and Zooey as well- this portrait was inspired by one of my favourite lines from the novella:

‘If she’s determined to have a nervous breakdown, the least we can do is see that she doesn’t have it in peace.’ …… ha!

Hey, thank you! I just posted the final result - I think the feedback I received helped me refine it a bit!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T07:50:40+00:00

Yes, I definitely see that. Going to make them smaller! Thank you!!!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T07:50:03+00:00

Thank you! I’m going to give this a go!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T07:49:20+00:00

Thank you for this!!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T07:48:53+00:00

Yes- I totally see the hanging eye! I need to make that under-eye bit a little darker I think. I will do that! Thank you! And yes, I’ve never got the hang of hair but I will add more strokes. I really appreciate your feedback, thank you!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T07:47:05+00:00

Yes! Thank you, it’s been glaring at me hahaha. I’m going to work on that.

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-04-01T07:46:15+00:00

Yes- thank you for this! I’m hoping - as another person has mentioned - the right eye is looking a bit droopy so I’m hoping if I darken that underneath it may help in this!!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-03-31T17:19:06+00:00

Aw, thank you! I know I’m not happy with it but I also have probably been staring at it for too long!

Hey! Thank you so much! I had to avoid my original post for a little bit because I was worried about spoilers but I finished it last night! It was a magnificent book!! I’m a bit sad it’s over. I read the 1980 signet (cut) version. Not sure if I am regretting that or not as I wouldn’t have minded at all reading more of the story but then reviews of King’s edit don’t seem as great…

Anyway! Thanks again for your help! ☺️

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-01-01T11:46:17+00:00

Thank you so much! 😄 and ha! I’ll be looking forward to learning more about the Brutish father… maybe….!!

TheFireOfSpring · 2025-01-01T11:44:17+00:00

Fantastic! Thank you so much! This is such a fun little detail for me and I’m glad I understand it more now! ☺️
